hey

i was just wandering whos got this in their 'line and how effective it is...

does it make a noticable improvement to hp and acceleration and how does it compare to a full computer like the power fc or microtech?

and what can be done with it...ie fuel/air fix?

does it have the ability to control boost levels? so i can get rid of my turbosmart boost controller???

cheers

Get the manuals.

The AFC is just a piggyback air/fuel controller - more like a compensator.

The PowerFC is a full ECU replacement. Given that an FC is twice the price of an AFC yet does more than twice as much I think it's a forgone conclusion on which is more suitable in the long run.

The S-AFC certainly makes a style statement. Most people think that the AFC is a temporary step up to something bigger. For $400 it's worth it just to used it for a while and then flog it off.

Personally I think that the blue screen is just a teeny bit gay - a full complement of blue screened RSM/AFC/AVC-R is even more gay.

$400 - $600 for the S-afc for around 20-30rwkw gain on the stocker. Tripple that plus for a cheap PFC (add more dyno time) and you end up with about 5rwkw on top of the S-afc (If you are lucky)

go the pfc if you are going to go mad on a tubo upgrade later and have the cash all the same.

    • Mixing things up - installed some leather recaros to match the leather seat covered rear seats. Interior looks pretty schmick now except for some slight wear on the steering wheel which I will monitor and address if it becomes worse or actually noticeable!  
    • Didnt realise RB's had more then 1 head.
    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
