First of all, Hi and Happy New year to everyone!!!

I proudly own a 1993 S13 240sx w/ rb25det s1...

Current Mods:

- 750cc Injectors- Garret t04z t70 Turbo w/ Top Mount Mani.- z32 MAF- Q45 TB- Greddy-Like IM- Tial 38mm WG- Tial BOV- Denso Fuel Pump- 3¨ FMIC- 2.5¨ Piping Kit- Stock internals =)

Other Goodies: - Greddy Timing Belt- Greddy Oil Catch Can- Apexi Power Intake- New Full head Gaskets set- Iridium Spark Plugs 7- Huge Radiator x 2 fans- Turbo Blanket

Only problem is I´ll be running on stock ECU. I know this topic has been covered one to many times, but just wanted a new updated option or answer.

1. Will a SAFC do the trick? Or should i save $$ for an Apexi Power FC...?Ive seen options as ASH POWERS emulator, Nistune, JWT, Enthalpy, even E-MANCE...Ive done a lot of research and I know 300zx ecus, maxima ecus, rb20 ecus are used for these.I have no money yet for any of these, since I know it would be $700+...

Should i just save and get a SAFC meanwhile to get it running with new injectors, new turbo and maf?

Other issue is I live in Panama, and there´s no much tuning options here as in USA, just when justin nenni comes by hehe.So you recommend having an ecu thats already tuned just plug and play, as ash, nistune, jwt?

Sorry for taking your time guys, just wanted to clear some stuff up that can´t let me sleep

Any help would be greatly appreciated...thx for your time Guys...

George...

If you go with an AFC you will have issues with it controling injectors over 660'cc. You have already gone this far in your build why cheap out now? Just do it right the first time and get something you can tune properly. If do not have the money now just save up or you will be out a motor too.

Yah, ur right boosted, ill do things right from start. No point of doing it different when I already invested a lot of $$ and time...

Just wondering meanwhile I get the $$, If i could use a safc to get it running, but u answered my question and injectors size will be a problem.

When I get the money, im leaning towards Enthalpy( eventhough he specializes on sr/ka´s) but ive heard so many good things about him.Also Nistune would be a great option, but since theres no tuners over here that i know, maybe a plug and play rom chipped ecu would be a +...

thx for your comments, and any other regarding any tips to get around this would be greatly appreciated...

... why make two identical threads?

For that many mods, an AFC won't cut it. Consult your local tuner. Nistune is a popular option.
