SAFC HELP
 

ok well i just got my safc today and was looking over the instructions and man they left me feeling stupid. ok i havent put the kit in the car yet so i want to learn this thing first. ok first when i start the car for the first time will the default settings be ok to at least run the car or will i have to program it before i start it? does anyone know of and easy step by step procedure with pics for setting this up with a dseries motor? if i adjust boost will i have to recalibrate the safc or will it adjust automatically? as you can see this thing has me hella confused and the chart that came wiht it is in japanese so that really doesnt help. thanks guys for any tips...

Check out www.thedropshop.tv I think it is..

Check out thier step by step on setting upt he VAFC (Same as the SAFC but with VTec) and compensate for no boost, and smaller injectors.

Otherwise, the only thing I can think of you doing is poking around online. I haven't really seen people use it without boost.

no well im not going to install it until i put the turbo in. i am going ot be runing 450cc injectors and about 6pounds of boost. but im scared ill blow something up as soon as i start it if its not set right

Re:SAFC HELP
 

Well, if you're waiting until you install the turbo and the injectors, just read over TheDropShop's how to.. they show you how to set it up for boost. Then just tune it to your application.

will it adjust automatically if i increase boost?? oh and i seen the link thats nice just what i needed.

Well, I used to thing that it didn't, but Johnny Quest sort of "educated me" I guess on how it works.

I've never owned one, only have friends who have them, and from what they told me it didn't. But what Johnny says, it does. He seems intelligent, so I'd probably go with it..

Here is the post..

when you increase boost, to the safc hack it is thinking that before you only had 80% throttle or whatever and now you you are flooring it. basically when you increase the boost with the hack it increases what 100% throttle is.

hhhmmm very interesting stuff. i think after i get the car smogged this weeekend(hopefully it passes), ill go ahead and do what johny quest did, install the injectors and try to learn it on the base engine, then hookk up the turbo. thanks guys hope fully i wont be buggin too much this is my first turbo project and no one around here really like the turbo idea so they dont know ----. my friends are allmotor freaks. thanks fellas.
