Looking at a SMC 500
Hey guys my turbo project is almost complete, here is what I have so far for 93 civic DX:
IHI RB5 turbo HF manifold adapter plate FMIC from Custom Coach (group buy, shipping out Tuesday) 450cc Blue tops probe BOV (for now) What I'm looking at now is an SMC 500 because of it's price. I've been doing some research on it and it seems to operate the same as Apexi S-afc except it has no display, is that correct? As it has no display would I have to tune it using a Air/Fuel gauge? I'm just looking for some help on this from somebody with experience running or installing the SMC500 on their Honda. As my project nears completion I just want to thank everyone on this site for all the info, this site kicks ass! |

Re:Looking at a SMC 500
i am in the same boat as you. I am also getting a super map controller but nobody ever talks about the damn thing. I am pretty sure what you asked about is correct. no display. except for led's

Re:Looking at a SMC 500
Yup. I have one I;m installing soon. Same as SAFC just no screen. And uses little knobs. Great for the price.

Re:Looking at a SMC 500
i have one...gets the job done, but barely....takes a long time to do the settings, and doesnt like revving to a constant high rpm, or racing from a roll since it has no high and low throttle settings like an afc does

Re:Looking at a SMC 500
Ghettoturbo how did you set your SMC, did you use a air/fuel gauge? How much boost are you running with the SMC?
Thanks |
Re:Looking at a SMC 500

Re:Looking at a SMC 500
I've got a SMC500 too.
http://www.imagestation.com/picture/...c/fbf0f332.jpg Last week I installed it with out having my turbo or 450cc's on yet. So I put all the settings at zero. http://www.imagestation.com/picture/...8/fbf0f31d.jpg Installing it was easy, "tuning" it was easy but took time, oh well. Once you get the settings that work for you, you won't be touching it again and it's better than having a flashy display that will attract the thieves. ;D |
Re:Looking at a SMC 500
Hey phresh_5 what are you driving? So your install went smooth, how were the instructions with the kit? Are the instructions vehicle specific? I'm going to order mine next week so I'll probably be hittin ya up for some more info on the install if I need any help.
Thanks |
