I just got my safc 2 wired up last week. I got a base tune on it now. At WOT i was running between a 11.1:1-11.6:1. i took some fuel away and now i got it between a 12:3-12:8. That made a huge differance in my power. I only had to tune the AFR after 4 grand to 7grand. Just doing that made my car pull so much harder. What AFR Should i shoot for? I need to know so i can tune it more because im going to the track on the 1st.
Thanks Kevin
 
You should have probably left it alone, 12.3:1-12.8:1 is too lean at wot. Are you monitoring knock?
 
Yeah, that's way to lean for pump gas. It probably pulls a lot harder but your internals are suffering from it. I would take it back down to mid 11's.
 
I see your car is N/A. N/A cars can get away with leaner afr's because they have way less chances of detonation. I would say your running a little lean. I dont know what a good afr for your car would be but 11.1 would be the leanest I would go to be safe.
 
I see in your profile your using a real wideband. When I started reading this thread I was like WTF ? I hope this guy has a wideband and isn't using one of those blinky POS's... Your safe, and AFR's around 11.1 - 11.4 on premium pump should be ok for you for a reliable car making some N/A power....

4g63 FTW...

P.S - Since you don't have a knock sensor (being N/A and all) I'd recommend getting an EGT gauge and keeping a close eye on it while tuning.
