Do you mean SAFC???

I think he does mean safc, and we can tell you what to do but you need a logger and some other things. Is your profile up to date? I don't see any fuel mod's, such as a pump, injectors, and FPR

no fuel mods yet but that and fmic are my next thing

Well as of right now, you just need to not be boosting it really, stock fuel system is not suffecient enough to support what you have safely. When you get the fuel and FMIC the you need to get your hands on a logger like 90laserrs said and tune for under 7 counts of knock and around .87 o2's and it will get you close.

Once you have the fuel mods and front mount you should really do a boost leak test and get a logger before doing anything with the S-AFC.

yeah like mentioned before, performing constant boost leak tests, compression tests, and leak down tests, as well as keeping your eye on the oil and coolant levels are what you need to do. I'd suggest also that you rewire whatever fuel pump you choose, as our cars suck for getting the much needed voltage to the fuel pump. See vfaq for details and a how to guide for rewiring your fuel pump.

all on 10psi turbo poorly made less than 50miles on it

 

[Kyromoto]

jeeze man. Ive had some serious breakdowns with my car but nothing like that... mostly over heating, exploding radiators, or blown head gaskets and timing problems.

 

[Imback]

Were did you purchase the turbo? I would believe if you bought it from a reputable shop there is some sort of warranty.

 

[blkwidow]

I bet you got it from Ebay

 

[thesmartestyet]

my friend bought it off of ebay right before i bought his car i was only runing 8psi with less that 50 miles on the turbo never went over 4500rpms im using the warranty to get the money back to buy either MHI big16g or just a MHI 20g
