u should get a afpr if u dont already have one. Also please dont type with your caps lock on or capitalize the first letter to ever word... people around here dont like that. On a more positive note... welcome to the site!

ty and what is a afpr im new to dsms

Its a fuel pressure regulator it regulates the amount of fuel at the fuel line, if you have a 255 you should have one. Remember you have upgraded the fuel pump its not stock anymore, you need
to adjust the added fuel.

AFPR= Adjustable Fuel Pressure Regulator And the "Horsepower in a box" is called a MAF Translator or MAF-T for short. At 15psi your not going to make very much power. You need a datalogger in order to turn the boost up safely. Check out the tech guide Tech Guide - DSMtuners as well as vfaq.com

Adjustable Fuel Pressure Regulator. Your 255 will overrun the stock fuel pressure regulator.

Please use proper grammar/capitalization etc. or you'll get griped at. The SAFC or Super Air Flow Converter is a very basic device for adjusting fuel. No you can't turn your boost up with it. Unless you have some way to see knock or have a wideband o2 installed you should not turn up the boost. You can't get the previous owner to go over the car with you?

He had it done professionlly he knows about as mush as i do

I'd try to get a hold of them and see what all they did to the car. I'd assume theres a reason that the boost is only at 15psi. (Lack of supporting mods, or tuning equipment). Take some pics of the engine bay and the interior and we may be able to provide you with some more info.

 

[T is for TURBO]

did 140 yesterday had the rotors smokin

Please dont do that. For the sake of everyone on the road.

 

[stregat]

ok here is some pics cant take pic of boost gauge to high of reflection

 

[matt98eclipse]

You already have a afpr. BEFORE you turn up the boost any more you really need to get a datalogger to watch were your injector duty cyles are at. Also watch for knock. Also i would make sure you do all the proper maintance first like all fluids and inspect the timing belt.

 

[stregat]

ok thank you whats a good data logger and nothin but synthetic fluids timing belt was changed 30,000 miles ago

 

[stregat]

i just text the guy i got the car from he said he has a dsm link for it but the shop told him the apex one is better is that true and what is the diffrence in the apex and the dsm link

 

[matt98eclipse]

You can get dataloggers pretty cheap. I picked up mine from a local dsm friend for only 40 bucks. Look in the classifieds or you can go to pocketlogger.com.

 

[matt98eclipse]

GET THE DSMLINK!! Alot better for tuning. safc price around 275 and dsmlink is 550$

 

[Ryan_Radio]

And for the love of Pete, please use periods to end a sentence. I had to re-read what you typed 3 times to make sure I'm reading it right

And welcome to the forums!

 

[Novice]

Nice setup, You should bury yourself in the VFAQ and forum searches for a few days to catch up on all this stuff!

 

[soccerplayaz16]

DSMlink will be the better choice for you if you know someone who can use it....i would choose a link over the safc any day of the week
