Default should i go with the afc hack???

i was reading earlier and read that someone said the afc hack isnt good if you are running under 8 lbs. of boost because it advances ur timing to much. I was planning on gettting 450's and a vafc and maybe retarding my timing a little but what do yall think should I just go with another whole fuel managemnt system if im not gonnna be boosting 8 lbs. or more. I was planning like 5-7 lbs of boost for now and maybe bump it up to 7-8 later. My engine is a z6 and my turbo is a TCO5-12 intercooled. What setup do yall think I should run for my fuel management. And the last thing I wanna do is blow my engine! Thanks for the help!

afc hack and 450's will be perfect for you. you may have to retard your timing a little at the dizzy, but you should be fine with the hack up to about 10lbs.

so i should go with the 450s and the afc over getting fmu for how low im gonna be boosting. So has anyone ran into any problems pushing 6-7 lbs of boost with the afc hack and 450's?

If your sticking to low boost I recommend some 3xxcc injectors. The dsm did give me the 'stock' fealing they are jerky and sometimes gives a funky idle. I'm running some 310cc injectors from a ford probe GT 2.2L turbo.
