i suppose anyone with a bsic tuning knowledge could tune it. its quite easy.

But you'd need a dyno.

So you can change a setting, then see its result, then over and over again.

so contact someone with 2wd dyno and off you go.......

Unigroup engineering can dyno tune your safc. I can highly recommend them. I mounted mine on the dash above the air vents.. but if you want a more discrete look try in front of the DIN slot or to the left of the steering shroud above where your left leg goes.

Check my sig for unigroup details.

ok thanks guys.

which suburb is unigroup engineering in?

and i really dont want to mount the safc on top of the dash cause i dont want any holes/marks ect on the dash, and to the left of the steering shroud (above left knee) is where my gauges are mounted.

any other surgestions?

S-AFC mounts with double sided tape so you don't have to worry about holes in the dash. But the stuff that it comes with is pretty crap, I replaced it with better stuff that didn't keep falling off.

I mounted mine above my left knee under the dash. It looked really good there, like it was part of the dash.

S-AFC tune usually takes around an hour. They tune the whole car, no other way to do it. You get a dyno printout.

You will still have a stalling problem, nothing I know of other than a HKS idle controller will properly eliminate this problem. You might notice some improvement after the tune but it won't be perfect.

tune takes one hour. They charged me $120ish and ran it o na dyno about 8 times. Included dyno graphs as well.

Check their website in my sig for more details.

What do u guys think of the TSI setup instead of getting a PowerFC. Would u get as much power out of it??

    • My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.
    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
    • Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
