I just installed my safcII and i started the car the rpms in nuteral jump from .3 to.6 feels like my car is about to die. :( I don't know what settings i need for my safc. I never used one before. Please help me with setting. My mods are
Hallman ES boost controller
Greddy type s bov
Megan 3" Cat Back
3" downpipe
no cat
K&N Air cone with injen intake
Greddy upper and lower ic pipes
Greddy Turbo timer
Walbro 255lph fuel pump
AR boost gauge
A/F gauge
safc II

What setting do i have to use for my car to run the way it has to? :talon:
 
noone can tell you what settings to use, every car is different even with the exact same setup. Just read the tuning guides tune it untill it's running right. Did you expect to be able to plug it in nad be done with it?
 
^^^Same being said^^^^

Unfortunately you can't take someone else's settings and put them into your car. You can, however, just run it at stock/baseline until you get it figured out or tuned. :thumb:

thanks for advice. I played with safc little longer and got some basic idea, but i did not have purple wire(knock) taped in. My knocks read 282 with out it :confused: Where exactly do i have to tap it in? there are 1-92 slots to go with, where does this one go? Running extremely rich, gas spitting out my exhaust. Is it thrl number that controls lean/rich mixture?
 
you can't read knock on a 2g without DSMLINK.

aaand, get a handy-dandy pocket logger to help you tune that SAFC of yours. do you have an AFPR for your fuel pump? if not, your car is probably running rich as hell; but please make sure you have a logger of sorts before you start leaning your SAFC out. I dont think anyone wants to find out you blew your motor because you leaned it out 30% just to see what happens :cry:

why, did you blow your engine like that? aniways, i just fixed the problem the car runs fine now and exhaust sounds alot deeper :thumb: I am running 14 psi with out fuel cut now :)
 
I'm going to be in this guy's position soon, except I'll be tuning via logger & SAFC2. My 550's 190LPH pump and SAFC2 are in, just need to pick them up/have them shipped here :thumb:
