hi guys

i asked you about the install and tune SAFC few weeks ago

and everyone said they installed and tuned SAFC around $200

but the place i tried was over 400 and upto 700!!!!!!

i tried UNIGROUP they said 700...

and they said it wont improve much without boost controller..

so 700 for install and tune SAFC and boost controller...

anyone know anyplace cost around $200 to tune and installation?

cheers

hey mate how are ya.?

yeh bud tell me about it hey. i got a quote for an install of safc mate.

195 bucks to install it cause it takes 2 and a half hours they said?

and couldnt quote me a dyno tune price because they couldnt tell me how long it will be on the dyno, and thats at 145 an hour.

so yeh i have heard guys on here getting much cheaper as well.

Just to add, i had mine tuned-only at Unigroup for $150 but that was ages ago so i don't think they are overpriced but maybe included the price of the unit and installation as someone else already stated

i said to them i had safc..

i think they overpriced on me..

how long does it usally take to tune SAFC?

On the topic, Ive got a quote of $650 to install a safc2, profec2 and a set of spark plugs thrown in gapped at 0.8mm and tune it from JEM moorebank. Does that sound resonable? I had a chat with Adam

Now I am most likely going to install the safc2 myself the spark plugs so I might get the price to come down. but yea 750 for a tune is ridiculous!

Also could someone guide me to a link on how to install a safc2 here on sau? Thanks

    • Get something that can spray a bit, something like I'd use is a pressure pack for weed sprayer. I use one with degreaser. Spray it on (make sure you're fully covered up, you don't want that shit on you, especially face/eyes). Alternatively, a paint brush will help here as you can brush and work at the stuff quite aggressively.   Be aware, citric acid can eat metal away and will cause it to rust more later. So make sure you neutralise it when done, and give the fresh metal some protection. That hanger, I'd honestly bin and get something like the Frenchy's drop in replacement. The tank, again, I'd look for something else to replace it with. Remember, as metal turns to rust, it means there's less metal there now. So some patches of your fuel tank are likely to be quite thin.   Personally, Id focus on the front end of things, IE, how did the injectors get clogged if they're meant to be after a fuel filter. Then, once the front is sorted, I'd rig something up, even like a small surge tank, and make sure the engine is now running and all behaving. Then I'd replace the fuel tank and fuel hanger and pump. Also, I'd already be preparing to ditch your fuel filter...  
    • That's looking great! Are you planning to do things like all hidden wiring with it, or you're planning to have it look more like we'd expect an RB in an engine bay to look like?
    • Haha thanks everyone, I'll take everyone's suggestions into consideration. If I do eventually choose a car ill post it here update on the mods I do.
    • I found the ingredients at larger amounts from a Coffee Shop. 1kg Citric Acid for €8.50 500g Baking Soda for €2.50 I tried it out tonight distilled water (I got from my ACs) and dish soap. It does get bubbly with dish soap. In just two hours the hanger has improved significantly and rubbing against any remaining rust seems to flake it off. I'm going to leave it a little bit longer and see how it goes. I have read that someone even used this solution in an ultrasonic cleaner to clean a seized water pump which brought it back to life.
    • If you like more modern stuff than the R series, you should check out a V37 400R, they are pretty mod friendly
