copied from the main board...

Power FC are made for Gen3's and you will need to invest in a datalogit system bc the commander has limited tuning capabilities.

for a gen2 set up you will need to source a power exterprise edition or source a custom harness to make it work. You will also need to get a few extra sensors such as map, and air temp to make it work properly.

I just read that Power FC now offers a PRO version that opens up all the peramiters that the commander does not allow.

ask the guy you are buying it from if he has altered any of the settings that it came with...

if not, give blitz a call and ask them about it, they should be able to give you specs on their own ecu, at least id hope so...
