    Anybody using safc? I need opinions.

    My mod list is not current. But it's close. I just switched to link from afc. If you can wait do so it's so much better. If not then afc is duable. It idk if you'll quite get those numbers. Pick up a 2g Mas it will help a bit with the afc fooling the ecu as it reads a higher airflow signal...

    Dsmlink cutout only when nlts is active

    That's the one I'm reading. I just want to make sure I'm going to do it right. So it does NOT matter which one goes where?Just cut both wires at the switch. Ground one and run the other wire to the ecu and cut pin 104 and solder ecu end of 104 to the clutch cut wire right? Then just leave...

    Dsmlink cutout only when nlts is active

    Ok. I'm reading another thread now because my cars a 90 and it says on that page that 90"s are different. On the page I'm reading it says to just cut both wires and ground one then run one to pin 104. Is this correct? If o does it matter which one goes to ecu/ ground? I no longer have cruise...

    Dsmlink cutout only when nlts is active

    No not yet. Just bought v3 lite used like a week ago so I've just been messing around with it and tuning the car. This is the first time ive ever even delt with anyhing more advanced for tuning then a afc. Link is really easy to Use and I've got the car tuned really well. Antilag builds like...

    Dsmlink cutout only when nlts is active

    This is probably a repost but I've been looking and can't do d exactly what I'm looking for and Im not on the link forums. Trying to setup the no lift to shift as I've read it can be easier on trannies if done right. Idk how or what the wire is you have to tap from ecu or clutch pedal. My...

    car struggling to move

    Haha not always true.. I froze mine once i had a small leak at the o-ring on the water pump..I prolonged it because it was 20degrees outside lol so i added water and added water for a week or so forgetting to put more antifreeze. :ohdamn:Came out one morning..Got the weird feeling to check...

    car struggling to move

    Why would it have froze? Did you use the correct amount of water-antifreeze amount? You should pull the intake off the turbo and check for shaft play. You did start the car after you swapped the rad. right?

    Weird Fuel trims / bad TPS? *help*

    What did you do to your DSM today?

    Just curious as to your mods.. I seen your a noob and running 25psi took a look at your mod list and if its accurate you shouldn't be running 25psi thats why these damn motors have such a bad rep cause people think they can run the stock shit to 25psi because there buddy in a highly modded dsm...

    Which Turbo Should I Get [merged] What Turbo

    Then get a tuning device that allows you to set boost by gear.. I just think the 16g's come in too hard for a gs-t i know with a 14b and a MBC boost set to 13 on my old gs-t it was still a bi*** to keep traction and have fun with it.. AND I KNOW HOW TO DRIVE... So while thats a very big issue it...

    Well il be the next to say we need your goal.. But i will tell you that the 16g turbos power/torque while they are great little turbo's and the power comes in and stays, your going to have some issues in a gst.. These turbos power come in so hard and they build full boost in such a short...

    Finding oil leak without engine in car

    Well look at where the puddle of oil is and look around.. Any oil leak is going to collect dirt and stuff and look cruddier then a spot that doesn't have oil leaks.. But honestly if your going to have the motor out anyways why not order a OEM gasket kit and just replace them all and not have to...

    Ideal engine running temp?

    Lol depends... I cant get my temps above 170 unless i do LOTS of pulls... Temps stated above are normal.... But car will make more power and be safer with temps a bit lower.. I try and keep them around 180 and no more then 200. for power and safety.. High temps will make the car pull timing and...

    You need to get the EXACT starter for your car..

I finally freaked out on them and made...

    Hellish DSM

    This is what i thought 10 seconds into reading the post. If the car was running good then the ecu starts giving weird readings and stuff soon followed by not even connecting to link. ECU. Pull it out and look/ smell for leaky caps. If it smells like burning seafood then the ecu is bad.. If it...

    1G Weird Misfire/popping

    Well guys i think i solved my issue.MONTHS (like 6 or more) back i did the blue wire mod with my safc so i could read my o2 voltage. I knew it was a bad idea but needed another tuning tool besides just my egt gauge so i could get the car running right.I never used it after probably the first...
