Re: People who are Boosted w/o Tunning Sign in.. blue wire mod ???s
The blue wire mod uses the blue wire coming from the afc that usually hooks up to a second maf sensor like on a nissian and then you read the voltage on the sensor check sceen. It has actually been found that the afc still sends a small amount of signal through this wire so this could make you have false reading which would make it worse than using a narrowband gauge. I would rather tune with one of them than use the blue wire mod but neither is great which is why I bought the plx m300

95RedEX:
VAFCs are going for $150 or less used right now... Is that what "getting hit hard" means?
He was just getting into cars and I was telling him about different types of fuel management that people use for turbocharged cars. He saw one on Ebay and ended up paying $225 for it because he didnt know the going price. Id love to hold his hand and do everything to his car for him,
but people have to learn somehow. You didnt magically learn everything you know about cars overnight did you?
"Seriously, quit being such a cheapskate and tune your car right."
Maybe if you would read the post you'd see that its not MY car and that Im in the process of chipping my ECU and that he had already purchased the SAFC and was going to stick with it for a while.
I did by a wideband tho cause the blue wire mod was useless, it was very erratic. I was just posting to see if people had ran it and to see what other people had thought of it. I didnt post to have everyone tell me to have his ECU chipped.
thanks for those who helped....

My car is still untuned right now, basically due to the fact that there's no one around jacksonville, FL apparently that can help me out!!! 
j/k. I havn't had any issues with the way my car runs, but only had my turbo done for about a month now. Boosts 10psi great tho! I really want the tune, i heard too many horror stories about blowin motors, i dont wanna be the next one! So if anyone reads this and is near JAX, hook me up!

yea , a buddy at my shop told me about it, as far as he said, u get a gm o2 sensor, have it welded about a foot away from ur header, hook it up to a volt meter, and if its a 0.6 u are good to go, any higher, ur rich and any lower u are lean,
