I really appreciate your help for the info. I'm really interested in learning about TurboEdit.So what can I do to start? I mean, can I buy a chip programmer,a programmable chip, download TurboEdit program and learn from there? Is it easy to understand? Cause I'm no computer wiz, but I can handle a computer OK. Where can I buy the parts? This is my first boost job and I want to do it right. Will TurboEdit guide me through? Or do you think I should go AFC and then learn TurboEdit and upgrade when I'm ready? THANKS!!!!

The AFC hack is pretty much plug and play; if you want boost like RIGHT NOW you'll need to go that route. People on Ebay are always buying SAFCs for outrageous prices so you can always sell it later. TurboEdit is very popular, mainly because J.Parker takes pride in his work and has put together a very polished program. I'm using Uberdata in my obd1 civic. I think chipping the ecu is the only decent solution in the long run. Check out the Turboedit sticky and engine management faq above and go from there.

OK. For now I'm planning on going afc. But I'm still gonna learn turbo edit and purchase the necessary hardware. Then I'll take it from there. Now another simple question. My timing is vacuum pressured, on distributor. Will safc work properly? Will the wiring bolt up on my ECU? I saw an old SAFC from APEX with no digital display, just tuning knobs for sale on E-BAY. They're like 5 knobs with 1600RPM increments. Are these any good? Or should I get the newer SAFC or SAFC2? THANKS!!!!! I also forgot to mention I'm planning on installing those 450 cc correct-inject injectors from Tuner Toys. No hotwire thing. Will that affect afc? THANKS AGAIN!!!

if you tune the Safc then it will work on your car also yes it will wire to your ecu as long as you have a map sensor which you probably do have. get the digital safc's if you can get a deal on a newer one go for it but any one of the blue digital ones will work and be easier to tune. also the tuner toys injectors will work with the Safc. if you need some info on hooking up the Safc and the settings check out www.thermal99.com he has a good detailed write up on the Safc hookup and settings. Also turboedit is easy when you just do some reading and look at others results I learned a great deal in a short bit of time. Also WILL do you burn chips?
