There is nothing wrong with the K series APIM, In fact it is a pretty good one. It will work fine in your Mustang, but you need to make sure if it is a 2020+ APIM before you mess with upgrading software in it. ---

Nothing wrong with a 2019 K series. Your actually better off with a 2019 one as you can reformat it and upgrade everything. ---

There’s no 4 or 8 inch APIM, they run different software, but on the same hardware. ---
