Where to get Safc tuned??"(melb)

[Bo0sT_JuNkY]

Well my safc has been in for about a week now ,but i havent got it tuned.Just after a good place that has tuned a safc on a skyline before,with good results.also whats it cost for a tune?

[Guest INASNT]

ice performance will do a good job and it will only cost you about $75.

yes...I wish I live in Melb....they charge crazy in Sydney..

If you get a Greddy A/F ratio meter, then you can tune it yourself! Must have item for a turbo car after a turbo timer in my opinion.

sweet where's ice performance?operator couldnt find it,anyone have there number??Ive got a autometer a/f gauge but i got told not to use it for tunning cause there not that accurate.So it just another gauge next to boost,oil,water .But i must say after putting in a boost gauge it did go heaps better:D .......

or maybe it was the bleed valve that was put in with it??

nah it was the boost gauge

:lol:

You're right not to use it for tuning because they are not what they are used for. It's just an ornament, in my opinion. Greddy A/F meter comes with it's own 02 sensor which although not to professional standards, is useful as far as being able to tune the S-AFC. Set your Fuel ratio at full throttle between 11-12.1 for power and that safety edge (richer than 12.6 max power) to help prevent detonation.

Hey INASNT, that isnt dyno tuned is it? I was quoted by Arnold at HyperTech and he said $365 to fit and get 2 hours on the dyno... $75 is friggen cheap. However HyperTech (formally BGT performance) have a name Australia wide as being one of the best in the best around, and are the distributors for A`Pexi...? If $75 is all its gonna cost me then i am gonna call them aswell, cos i am getting a brand new AFC for $450 and was a bit angry that it was gonna cost almost as much to have it running properly. BTW anyone who wants an AFC get onto Sub-Zero performance in QLD they have them on special fro $450 at the moment, they have none left in stock but are getting more in Feb, and i rang them today adn they will honor the special price in Feb aswell as long as ya call them and tell them about the add 'you saw' in High Performance Imports. L8ters all, J.

I installed my s-afc with grim on our cars ourselfs! it takes about 1 hr and cost us $0. To tune the s-afc only takes about 1 hr at a max as there aint that many points of tuning u can do with it!

$365 to fit and 2 hours to tune? WTF that is out of control. It only takes about 2 hours to tune a Power FC in competent hands, and a good shop will charge about $75/hour max for labour (even though I think I would hesitate at going much over $50/hour) so $365 = 4.86 hours. Either someone doesn't want your business, or they are trying to rip you IMHO

[skyline33]

the only reason why the s-afc is cheap now is because there is a new s-afc its called the Super-AFC II, which will be released after christmas

There is a new safc (third gen) being released after christmas (now) and it is selling for the same price as the second gen. safc on takakaira.

There is also a limited edition black face model.

It seems to have the ability to be tuned at 200 rpm increments (instead of 500) and a lot of other features which I have no clue of 'cos I can't read japanese - check out the apexi pdf if you can read japanese and please let me know what it means in terms of new features.
