Your wiring should be:

Red Wire (Pwr)

Green Wire (RPM Signal)

Brown Wire (Ground closest to ECU)

Black Wire (Ground a few cm's from the Brown wire)

Yellow Wire (Air Fuel closest to the ECU in)

White Wire (Air Fuel the other end of the snipped wire)

Grey Wire (Throttle Signal)

Ignore all other wires. You would not need them.

Yep when I accidentally unplugged it it stalled straight away. But not having a screwdriver to plug the wires back in (they got yanked out of the unit itself - long story) and being a few k's from home I had no choice but to try running it without.

It started up fine first kick funnily enough, but then wouldn't rev above 2000 or so. I crawled all the way home at about 40kph, and it was running so rich you could smell the fuel from the cabin sometimes.

It's far from the optimal situation because the extra fuel can wash the oil from your cylinder bores, but 10000km later I've had no issues. It can also foul your plugs. But it's better to have it running too rich than too lean.

With the Yellow/White wire which detects the AFM, it is best to not just join the wires but to get a female/male wire fitting plug as seen in the Apexi manual. This is so if any problems you encounter in the future with the SAFC, all you have to do is unplug the white/yellow wires and plug in the stock ecu by joining the male to the female wire fitting plug. :)

I shit myself when that happened to me. turn off the engine straight away as i thought it will be back to factory settings by just unplugging the harness..

Oh, from my experience, resettings the ECU also helps. Car runs more smoother. :)

    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
    • Hi.. Just another problem. So maybe you can help. I(my mechanic) done swap from my RB20DE NEO to RB25DET NEO. Everything is OK but we have a boost cut. Coils/Plugs are ok...AFM is ok. ECU is ok. I have Walbro 255 but it "changed" sound few months ago(you can hear it ouside) you did not hear that when it was new(maybe faulty?) Sooo...what now? What can cause this boost cut? It is even when you standing still...
