I installed my SAFC last night and im pretty shure i got everything right. But i didnt hook up the air flow sensor wires because i wasnt shure how to do it. Well i found a thread that told me what where and what colors so i did it like it said and now my car runs like shit! It ran fine before i hooked up those 2 wires. I belive its pin 90 that sthe wire you cut in half and i think its blue with a yellow strip. And the thread said to run the orange wire to the wire you cut and the pink wire to the other end of the wire that you cut that goes to the ecu. So i did that and now it bogs untill i hit 3500+ rpm and then it tries to die and also the stock boost gauge dosnt work any more. I un hooked those 2 wires and put that one wire back togather and its fine and runs like it did and the boost gauge also works. So what am i doing wrong or doe sit just need tuned. Also the a/f gauge stays on rich when its hooked up.
 
with bigger injectors the the engine is now running too rich, so lean the fuel out using the afc. see thats how it works, if you want more fuel the afc tells the engine that it is using more air, and if you want less fuel it tells it that it is using less air. Too lean is death to a engine so you need a logger to tune it with.
