safc to be or not to be
 
i have a t3/t4 with 450cc injectors, adjustable fuel pressure regulator, and safc that im am goin to install on a d16y7. i have looked all over this sites forums and still need help understandind a few things. i want to run 5 to 6 psi, i have seen the reponses on a chipped ecu but how do you monitor them? how do you know they are setup for your application? i have not done my install yet, and yes this is my first. i can do all the work as far as the mechanicle, but understanding how to setup a basic managment sytem is like reading arabic to me but im not a retard i own a welding and fab shop. ive looked all over this site for someone to call or contact one of the techs. i dont want huge hp gains i just dont want my ---- to blow up. help me out my brothas, thanks O0

get a wideband and use your afc it will be fine at 5-6 psi


just a good starting point is -45 across the bord till you start making boost the go up to -35 ish and tune from there with the wideband

its a o2 sensor that read on a widerband then a stock o2 sensor does.


$200 ish



no you dont have to have one you can just run a fmu since your only pushing 5-6 psi. you should trade your safc for one there idiot proof (no affence)

i should of read the site before i asked that question, do you have any knowledge into the apexi neo, just got one and just want to see what kind of response i get. would i have to make a catch can on my pcv if im running 5 to 6psi? also whats the best line to use for my vacuum manifold, is it my brake booster line? :y

neo is the same as all the safc and vafc the trip the map sensor readings there all the same the neo just has more functions.

i have no catch can and my car is fine.

i didnt run a vacuum manifold. i just ran 3 t fittings off my fual pressure regulator vacuum sorce one for wastegate one for bov and one for boost guage

Just run that line to an empty bottle of your favorite energy drink. Boost. Be happy.
