I'm just getting ready to drill the holes to install the AFS AOA kit, and I'm wondering... are there any pros or cons to installing it in one wing vs the other?

Don't know of any pros or cons, I mounted mine in the left wing using the
measured distances as prescribed in the AFS manual, I used Rob's
calibration settings from his RV-10 and it works perfectly.

Conservatives generally put it in the right wing and liberals put it in the left wing.
Being closer to the pilot side connections and with the pitot line running out to the left wing, it just seems more logical to put it there as i did, between the stall waring and the wing tip per AFS instructions.

You could debate the definition of "it", or you could be a moderate
and put ports on both wings. 
What does that make those that use the Dynon combined pitot/AOA?

All this discussion on such a small item reminds me of a saying my friend has. "Pole vaulting over mouse turds."

Conventional wisdom (or urban myth) says that pitot tubes and stall warning vanes are installed in the left wing because that wing goes slower in the left turns associated with a "standard" circuit, so it will stall first.
Feel free to do the maths on the speed difference between the wings and report back .
Cheers,
