pushead Posted September 7, 2003 Share Posted September 7, 2003 Helpp, I installed the SAFC myself. Its currently set to default settings (selected the initialize YES mode). Will this be ok if i leave it for say 2 weeks? will it cause any damage to the car? Just kinda scare what this little baby might or can do to the car's engine. I still need to book in a place to get it tuned and dyno... Currently im waiting for a 2 stage boost controller and was planning to get it up to 10 psi and do the whole dyno thing at once. If anyway can take away my stress that would be good..

Guest Robo's Posted September 7, 2003 Share Posted September 7, 2003 Leaving it on zero is like not installing it, so it wont alter anything Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/24320-help-apexi-safc-installed-before-tunedyno/#findComment-519470 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hicks Posted September 8, 2003 Share Posted September 8, 2003 That was running exaust, intercooler, and 12.5 pounds of boost. The first one was the same but without the safc.

predator Posted September 11, 2003 Share Posted September 11, 2003 hint: zeroing the S-AFC and tucking it away is also a nice way to pass an EPA test without removing the thing...

JimX Posted September 11, 2003 Share Posted September 11, 2003 Pred, surely a well-tuned S-AFC would help with emissions though? I mean yeah hide it if they're going to ask questions about it, but because it leans mixtures out, in theory that would mean it'll run cleaner.

T0nyGTSt Posted September 11, 2003 Share Posted September 11, 2003 The S-AFC helps but it's obviously not as good as the PFC at controlling emissions. ie. a car that fails to pass on the AFC will in all likelihood pass with the FC... and a competant tuner.
