okay... I have 4 of 460cc injectors, 255 walbro F/P, SAFC II.

I was going to put safc ii first then put F/P and then 460cc injectors.

(i thought it was safe way to do)

But, after I read the instruction and couple threads, I realized that what I was going to do is useless? Because I have to put new setup everytime I change something right? (like injector, putting turbo it, etc)

so I decided to put 460cc injectors, safc II, and 255 walbro F/P at the same time. (and then i'm gonna put my t3 turbo in)

But problem is, I don't know how to set it up.Wiring is no problem, but how can I set up my SAFC?

ps. I have a N/A KA-E with no turbo yet. (not DE) right now is stock everything.

sorry I know there's 10000 of SAFC forum but I couldn't figure it out.

you really need a wideband 02 to tune that, since you don't NEED those items right now I'd really encourage you to wait to install them until you get one but you can "guesstimate" the settings until then. basically just tune all of your fuel maps to compensate for the increase in size of injectors. Seriously it's not worth the trouble though. just wait until you get a wideband, a turbo, THEN go through the trouble.

FYI the injectors are about 80% larger than your stockers so you could adjust your fuel map out to lean out by about 40% across the board. This is just a rough guess though and because of that, it will >NOT< be tuned correctly it will just get it back to a running state where you can tune it the right way.

you >HAVE< to have a wideband to tune your fuel map. Period. if you dont buy one you're going to have to take your car to a dyno and use their wideband to tune it. If you don't know if you are running rich/lean how will you know whether to add or subtract fuel?

the guesstimate to get it running would be to set your fuel maps to -35 %or -40% across the board. That should be enough to get it running. from there you really need to tune it w/ a wideband.

I take that back. you dont need to tune it w/ a wideband if you dont mind blowing your motor.
