kemp hes back lol
check out the speedtunning thread it might help you

 

Arlan motorsportsalso does REVO which as a program allows you to use fully tunable software with your own laptop, for the price it isas good as a standalone system.

ps, they are currently chipping my B5 which is why i know about them.

 

Yes you can use an SAFC or EBC from APEXi safely on any engine, but it depends on the user, in this case i would stay away from it.

 

Think of the S-AFC as a fine-tuning tool to optimize an off-the-shelf chip program. The chip is programmed as a best-fit for the car, but particular quirks in your car may make it operate slightly different from your buddy's similarly-modded car. Chip it first, and then fine-tune with the AFC if you want to use one. If you're chipped and adding the AFC, you'll want to have it tuned on the dyno with a wide-band O2 sensor (and even better, also an EGT sensor if possible). Don't try wringing that last 3% out of your engine using only your butt-dyno, or you're going to make expensive holes in parts of your engine.

 

No I have no idea what you are talking about [&:]In the right hands I'll bet you could run 18-20psi, but you still won't gain the fuel,timing and boost that a chip will give you.

 

His other screen name was kemp travis, the ultimate in noob SLOWLY working his way up.

 

well i know a guy who tunes all types of cars using an safc, (fyi, i wouldnt ever tune it myself) he knows them very well i was just wondering if you guys have used them? and i already have a boost gauge, and a/f ratio gauge....beleive it or not its on "ideal" (with wideband) on a MBC(14psi)...so i have plenty of fuel as of now, but with the safc you can tune timing(slightly) and increase the fuel if needed and tinker with your idle and ignition and what not, but i was just thinking about getting it and running it with about 16psi(after the guy tunes it) and then get chipped so i can have almost complete control(next best to standalone), all i was wanting to know is that if it would work on our cars, and from what you've said, it will, and could help me keep my car safely on ~14psi.

thanks

 

so if i have an experienced user/tuner do it, then this could help me?, in what ways do you predict it would help out?...thanks

 

A better piggy back is the Greddy E-manage, but if someone else is tuning it for you then let them, then never touch it again.

 

gotta chuck in my .02 there's rly no alternative to chipping.
