Is anyone else running a maxima (N60) maf with 450ish cc injectors on an SAFC (s14 turbo)? I'd like to have the car run a little better until I can get to a dyno. Its sputtering pretty hard at the moment Or does anyone have any suggestions as to where I should increase/decrease fuel at what rpm increment? I have it driveable now, but I don't know where to add fuel or how much to add. My maf in/out settings are 2/7. I've read someone else ran 2/6 on his maxima maf, but it doesn't seem to change the way it drives. I'm going to steal my friend's wideband this weekend and do some more tuning, but I'd like to have somewhere to start...

i was pulling -13 before boost, and as much as -16 at idle. i had -1 across the board as well in high throttle, but that's for only 9psi.

edit: still running stock MAFS.

Yeah, I may need some base maps myself when I do mine up....Going to be running a Garrett GT28R, 550cc squirters, aiming for about 12psi.

Sorry, Maxima.org says 89-94 Maxima uses HW-6 (http://forums.maxima.org/showthread.php?t=385357). So it should be 6 in and 7 out.

I tried

It's always going to be 7 out, so you can just trial and error it. If that doesn't work, troubleshoot your install

it runs relatively well on the 2 in 7 out setting... gonna leave it there for the time being I guess. still have to make it to a dyno or at least get that wideband
