poster · Post by **poster** » Mon Feb 06, 2006 5:11 pm

hey guys!~
just a little help from u out there...
i have got an old school safc which looks like this...
http://www.rtec.ch/safc_inst.html

i heard that i need to take the car to dyno to be turn properly..
but now the budget isnt doing well for it....

so i will like to know how many of u out there have got this safc. and how do u use these things to give better perfomance?

and what lean condition have u got on your SAFC ?

my mods are:
SAFC
RPW extrators
HKS pod air filter
HKS dragger exhust

i doubt anyone here would provide their firgures to you, as they would say every car is different even if you have the same mods...

i'd like to know my self but no one replied in my posting ehhehehe

i know there is a honda s2000 forum and everyone shared their settings

maybe that could give u an idea but that car is different but im pretty sure its the same concept ... whenever the car is in VTEC YO!!!!! or mivec it richens a fair bit

however richard i think did a review and leaning out the car didnt provide power

Like hnm738 pointed out before, every car is different, even with the same mods, no one will end up with the same figure. I wouldn't play around with it too much as it can damage your engine by either running too lean or too rich.

You better of getting it dyno tune. Craig at RevZone is the person you should speak to, his one of the best Apexi tuner in Oz.

Btw there are two ppl in Vic that i know who also have the first gen SAFC (commonly know as just AFC) one is the new comer mivec_boy, but he doesn't know what setting to what either. And the other is Silther (Ethan), & your mods/setup is totally different to his.

From memory, Ethans one isnt tuned either

I dont reckon there is much u can get from the old skool AFC. maybe 3 -5 kwatw at best. The new gen SAFCII can get around 7-10kwatw depending on the mods.

hi poster,

using someone elses settings is the fastest way to go through a motor :S ... its like using a [pick a manufacturer who makes crap chips] or other "one size fits all" chipmod... if your car is breathing a lot better than the car it was programmed on you'll be running very lean pinging the nuts off it and sooner or later its going to blow up.

best thing to do is put it on a dyno and have a pro do it...

kev should know the right people to goto in melbourne.
