Hey guys got my car tuned today with my recently installed safc 2. Running a turbotech v2 boost controller.

Some strange things going on here

1. AFRs lean initially even though SAFC 2 was setup for no correction

2. I set the boost the night before on 11psi but first run shows levels just under 9psi and then it goes to 11 again after. Is this the tuner removing it initially to minimise risk of problems before tuning.

3. Graph on initial run is much smoother than the final tune the hump at the end is my main concern, is this just the limit of the safc adjusting fuel and effecting timing or bad tuning or something else.as.i notice the boost drops off then almost mirroring the peak hump.

It just seems weird to me besides the AFRS are better.the boost, power and torque curves look better on the initial run.

at the end of the day you have given the guy a piece of shit solution to a problem.

when you tune with a safc you can only move the afm voltage up and down, its never going to be good like a aftermarket ecu.

stop complaining, and buy a decent ecu. congrats you have now learnt your lesson, just be glad a new engine is not needed.

i am not complaining saying "why isnt my graph perfect" i know what an SAFC does and that its not as good as a standalone, but they have been proven to produce good results for my modifications.

So if any people with previous experince having SAFCs it would be most appreciated.

Basically the SAFC is just removing the R&R and changing the mixture slightly. It is not optimising the modifications therefore the end result is whatever the engine combo spits out.

Also Anthony is a tuner and a very capable one.

    • With the system, once you drive it for a bit, and before you turn the car off, does the car fix its date and time? When you say the date is wrong, what date does the vehicle think it is, and does it always show the same date? My thoughts from a process driven view is; The system may be defaulting to a standard start date/time. The main reason you'd typically see this occuring, is the system is losing its constant/backup power supply.   If its always defaulting to the same date/time at start up, and especially if it fixes itself while driving, I'd say either the non volatile memory has an issue, or the power supply to the volatile memory that stores this information.   The other thing I'd check is if there is anywhere in the system you can adjust the date and time from. If the date/time is still moving forward since it wished you happy new year, then it is 100% possible the system has just had a bit of data corruption occur, and you likely need to find a way to reset the date/time in the vehicle.

    • Just trying to get my head around this. At 5psi of boost, you turn on your wmi pump, and then you're using a 3000cc injector, to allow flow upto the actual engine, where you have your 6x200cc injectors and a 500cc injector. If the above is correct, what advantage are you obtaining by having the 3000cc injector blocking flow, is this just incase a line breaks between that injector and the motor you can stop flow immediately? Or are the 6x200cc and 500cc less injectors and just spray nozzle?
