Hi-
I just aquired a 91 Gsx with a 16g,all the hardpiping,webcams,9.5 JE pistons ,blah blah blah...question is-
I just replaced the timing belt,as it had skipped a tooth, and i now need to retune the afc as its running like poop now.(was previously tuned with the motor not timed right.) I have a 550cc injectors,an EGT gauge.the current map showes more correction at low throttle settings than at high,and that confuses me,shouldnt i want to have it run richer at WOT?
If anyone can give me some pointers on how to tune this thing,that would be greatly appreciated.

How to install a AFC :

( yes its for a supra.. use your DSM pinouts where we reference supra pinouts. )

How to setup a AFC

http://www.prostreetonline.com/pso/....asp?sessionId=

( This is for a SAFC II but the general premise of setting it up is the same. Here are some of the base settings : )

4g63 : etc settings
cylinder : 4 *arrow upwards and to the right*
Throttle Settings : 65% high / 35% low ( what we recommend )
Sensor Type : Karman.


Hope that helped.
 
Hi-
quick question on the setup aspect..the guy i got the car from said it ran all weird when you chose 4 cylinder, so its on 2..does that make sense? the unit works fine on 2, but if you think it needs to be on 4 or have heard of others with it like this, ill move it. dunno... im so new to this ..im a former mustang guy crossing over, so this is all new to me.
:shhh: i have the tmo datalogging on a lap top too , but im not to sure what to look for,just the basics like knock. IM SOOO CONFUSED.LOL
thanks for everyones help, maybe i ll be able to drive this thing reliably.

In regards to the correction: If the MAF is hacked your correction will be higher on the LO map. I run +30, +20, then +10 across the board on LO with a Blaha hacked MAF. The HI map should be set so you get the lowest knock count and EGTs under 1600f.
 
Hi-
update-
this is were im at..LOL
i forgot to mention it has a 2g maf, if that helps.
well, its gotta be on 2 cyl. i got that far..than i logged a drive round town.
First off,it runs like poop till its warmed full up. normal i imagine.
second, im runnin 17psi boost and this is what i could deciepher..
the egt is around 800c, no knock sum at all, and the 02 reading was at .94. how does this sound?(full throttle,2nd 3rd gear) now when i add positive correction, thats like riching it up,right? seems the low settigs are richer than the high..
im at +12 +10 +10 then +7 right across the board on low, which is set at 30%, high is set at 70%, its like +7 across the board also..
again, thanks to everyone whos helping.im learning alot and appreciate it
Dave
