Sure will you just gotta take the measurement from front of the table to the back. If it's under 32" you can just get the standard saw stop xl version. If it's bigger they'll make the larger base plate for 15$!
I got the LS wonderfence 32" one. This way I'll have up to 32" rip capacity on the right side of the blade. Waaaaay more than I'll need. I plan to drop one of the prl-v2 router lifts into the extension and a porter cable 7518 router motor. Since I have a need for a good router table and the incra can double as my rip fence it was a no brainer for me, though my bank account is hating me right about now.

Question, how will the rails attach to the erika?

A person could install the Incra rail brackets..... To the Mafell rail extensions....... Without drilling into the main body of the saw , the specs for installation are a hole .75 inch to 1,25 inch from the table top , no problem with the Erika profile .

That's what I was planning to do. I figure that sone how Id be able to mate the incra mounting pieces to the side rail pieces on the Erika. My thoughts were to drill and tap for machine screws most likely. Im pretty good with metal fab work so it shouldn't be so bad. l

Joe, are you saying you'd need standard mafell erika extension rails on top of the extension rails necessary for the incra? Me no like

Direct installation to Erika......... link . The use of one Mafell rail extension "front and back" for the Incra brackets is cleaner , less hassle to remove the Incra rails to fit through a door or narrow hallway .

i don't think its completely necessary to have the mafell rails also but it might make attaching and taking it off easier. I dunno but I'll find out sometime soon!

My thoughts were to drill and tap for machine screws most likely. Im pretty good with metal fab work so it shouldn't be so bad. l Drill and tap with a couple of dowel pins on either side reamed -0.001 and +0.001 would ensure the bolt only holds it in place. like dowels on a cylinder head.

How portable is this setup ? Not sure yet as I haven't completef it. Right now my Erika 85 lives in my trailer and folds up very compact. I just move it out, open it up and use the wheels to move it whether im going. If you plan to go through doorways with it you'll need to take the incra tails off im surr. Other than that the whole deal can be moved around by one guy. Just last week I grabbed the Erika and carried it about a football field around to a deck I was doing. It was worth it since it was the only saw I really needed.

I wonder is it necessary for the incra rails at all,i seem to remember reading in an Australian forum(that was dedicated to incra alone) that several people simply used the router table setup minus the wonderfence for their tablesaws,they found that stable enough and not prone to deflection and so did not deem the usual incra tablesaw setup with rails necessary.

Could be possible. I don't have anything to judge it against but felt the whole LS TS setup was worth it for me as it ticks off a few boxes. It gives me a highly repeatable and incrementally adjustable rip fence for the saw and the router.
I needed to set up a good router table so I felt it was worth getting double duty out of the LS TS on my Erika. I could be completely off base and hate the setup who knows??! Im highly skeptical on that point though, cmon its gonna be awesome.

That is what the other (Netherlands) link of Jonathan's showed mafell-users-forum.freeforums.net/thread/381/erika-incra-ls showed... No rails, just mounted onto the leaf.
