S-AFC or not 2 S-AFC

[Mart]

Qustion,

Is it really worth getting a S-AFC if the maximum i ever wanna run is 1.2bar. Without it can a RR sort all my fueling and timing that the S-AFC would control.
I'm going for full system exhaust, induction, fuelpump, AVC-R.

What other things are recommended to eventually run 1.2?

thanks for any help
Mart

Front mount to reduce inlet charge temp therefore reducing risk of det allowing higher boost to be run safely

Yeah sorry, forge FMIC going on too

The safc/safcII does not alter timing, it alters the maf sensor reading and tricks the ecu and adjusts fueling, i've got one on mine but in the back of my head think it would've been better to get either a unichip or complete ecu upgrade The safc is quite limited in what it does.

I'm running 1.1bar and 1.3 on the overboost (with an avcr) without the safcII being set up, at the mo its purely monitoring. I do have water injection though which comes on at anything over 1 bar.

Personnaly unless you can get one cheap i'd just go for uprated pump and water injection to run 1.2 bar (be about £480) IF THE CAR IS SOUND and you use optimax, shouldn't have any problems at all, no need to get it mapped just wire it all up and away you go.

Olly has run 1.3 bar for over a year with just water injection and boost controller.

i have run 1.25 bar for about ten months now and it hasn't missed a beat.

too much power already!

i would advise a whole lot more for your car...........a gearbox may aid in putting this boost on the tarmac, sending it down the strip so to speak!

2 posts and you only talk about gearboxes.have you got some for sale in the appropriate section by chance :?:

feulling and the management of it is everything.saf-c is def a good idea as is a stand alone ecu depending on available funds.this will also help when you enevitably want to up the boost a bit.

no management of the fuelling side is asking for,expensive,trouble sooner or later

No offence intended! Mart will understand. Besides the reply was aimed at him alone, refering to his car, nobody elses.

I use the S-AFC in my car... Does the job very well... £220 delivered from Japan isn't a bad price either...

Mine ran with no fuel controller or uprated pump for about a year on between 1bar and 1.15bar with no problems.Then it detted and bye bye engine.Get one or both and learn from mine and others mistakes .

cheers for the advice, if i can find one cheap then i might do it.
I will just stick with water injection.

Cheers

water injection! The car is already rusting. Then you will just have rust every where especially as the wreck just sits about broken.
