Apex SAFC-II Problem!!!

Hi, I installed my safc yesterday and went to the dyno to tune it and there was no way it will lean my car It's like the car was protecting itself or the safc wasn't actually tuning. Any ideas?
BTW, I know I should get kpro just wanna try these piggy back thingys

the car should be protecting itself from that thing , they are no good.

I've owned one.

go sell it to some kid with a civic down the road and get your 20,000 + car a real engine management system


search closed loop
search open loop
search vfacII
ditch the safc
jesus christ will someone help this guy instead of blabbering on about kpro?

not everyone wants to spend 900 for a management system and 05-06 1700 for the same damn program
The safc controllers actually control a/f via ignition timing. Not by adjusting the injectors.

So get rid of it.
Those who know enough to help you are aware of the fact that the SAFC II and it's variants have a history of unpredictability and potentially damaging results to the point of where the problems out whey their benefits. There are many acceptable applications for this device.The RSX is simply not one of them.


There are plenty of resources on this site that explain why this SAFC device along with many other piggy back applications do not mesh with the way the rsx was designed.




Also if you want a cheap fully tunable solution look up MEGA SQUIRT 2

its much better to spend 5 grand after the fact.
