Hey guys!

I believe we are the first to show you the new Super AFC from APEXi. We have taken pictures and installed this on a 2g GSX and all works well. I'll have more info for you later, but I just wanted to share some pictures.

This thing even displays Knock!! Bad-ass!!

The Box it arrived in.

Well, it reads knock now as well, and lets you set warning signals if something goes out of bounds.

We'll have a full writeup soon!
 
Very nice, i like the knock thing. I heard the new afc allows for 2 different settings. One for pump gas and one for race gas?????

APEXi claims it does, but we haven't tested it ourselves just yet. We will post info as soon as we have it.

For sure! We'll find out as soon as we can, and let you know.

Another thing... we thought the dial was going to be kinda cheesy, but we actually really like it... after getting used to it for 10-15 seconds, we didn't want to go back!
 
If it honestly reads knock with a 2G sensor, I'm all over this thing like Oprah on ring-dings.
 
Prostreet,

How much $ is this going to be from your shop and when are you going to sell it. I was planning on ordering this from takakaira this week for a total of $330 shipped. If you guys are selling it soon, (and the price is right) I will just buy it from your shop.

Thankyou
 
I wouldn't get you hopes up for getting a knock count out of the 2G ecu. It would have to be hard wired to the sensor because the ecu will not communicate the knock that it is seeing. I asked this guy, who is allready using this product, if he was able to get a knock count on his 2G. He said that there was not a wire for it on the ecu.

Oh, and did the instructions only come in Japanese?

If you follow this link http://www.prostreetonline.com/pso/pages/howto/2gnewafc.asp , they show that the Knock Sensor is being tapped with the purple wire from the S-AFC II.

So, it looks like it is hardwired to the sensor. Now, will it work?

I am not sure, They say "Tap the purple knock wire to the ECU".
That means the purple wire from the SAFC is being tapped to the ECU I think. But there is not an output from the ecu, so it would have to be taped from the knock sensor led.

I am confused, but I am sure prostreet will clear this up. If you were to try to tap the sensor I am not sure how well it would work if at all, b/c I will bet money that the knock on the AFC is supposed to be tapped to the ECU which will have a different kind of signal than the sensor itself.

So the 1G guy's will see a knock count on the AFC but the 2G's wont.
 
We don't have pricing yet on the SAFC II.

As for the knock value, I will have to check, and I will get back to you guys as soon as I can. I didn't personally install it, so I will have to talk to the guy at our shop who did. I promise as soon as I know, I will relay all information to you guys.

If you would like some more technical help, please give us a call at the shop, and ask for John. We will be happy to help you as best as we can.

Thanks!
 
Is the new wiring harness different, or can you get the new one and swap it in?

Thanx,

Just talked to John at prostreet, he said that it will be about $330 for the new unit and will be ready in about 2 - 3 weeks.
