Its only the tuneability that im worried about.The z32 has nothing to do with the injectors i know.

I have been led to belive it is a better quality solenoid in the z32 that gives more accurate readouts.

But what im really trying to say is.Is it worth the money when tuning with a pfc,i was told that most stand alone units i.e.A pfc dont really need it because they can create theyre own fuel/ignition maps.

But in the end it is up to me for what i want to use to tune my car with.:rofl:

I prolly will end up getting one in the end.:(

Correctomundo!

People with stock ECU and even S-AFC should tread carefully.

It works but it won't work as good as people make it out to be.

Fully programmable ECU is what you need.

Once you go 550cc/AFM, it's time to think ECU.

Tony, what's the go with the S-AFC? Is it truly horrible at controlling the injectors, or is it because it's fooling the stock computer into playing well with the larger 'jectors, as opposed to an AM ECU that can knows about the larger injectors from the outset?

It's a signal bender like the E-Manage.

It doesn't have full control of the motor unlike say an FC.

If I was to use one word to describe why an FC is better, it'd be "fine-tuning".

eg. you'll find it very hard to get the car anywhere near EPA with an S-AFC while the FC will make a better fist of it.

Saying that, I've seen the S-AFC control a car with a Z32, AFM and Trust internal gate turbo - just with horrible fuel use, emissions and performance was ok but a bit rough in delivery.

The FC cleared that up.

eg. there's a drop down menu for VG30 AFM and the injector size, plug and play as it were.

Great price for the injectors.....would love to say "im in" as i need them, there the only thing left holding me back at the moment.....but wallet says otherwise for a couple more months......doh'

if I was in, would definatly like to know more info about the clips, as i'd be installing them myself too.....how to modify? or how to replace with correct clips....

Im still waitin, and im not too impressed about his time to replies, however my email has really bee screwed lately, so im giving him the benefit of the doubt...

Ill post as soon as i know the answer about clips.

I know mate, dont worry i wont go ahead unless im 100% confident. In the end it would come down to me if somethin bad happened, and i definately wouldnt want that. Like i said, my email is ghey, so ill send him another email with my other account, and hope it goes well.

Well i have not heard from the guy for about 2 weeks so i am very skeptical now... I even emailed him from numerous accounts. I dont feel safe anymore about giving this guy my money or anyone elses. sorry Guys i think this group buy is dead :)

    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
