Well I didnt understand much of that, but what exactly are you tuning for? Do you have any idea how to tune the safcII or are you needing help getting started? What is done to the car?

u need to get a wideband reader so u know ur AFR's. the afc is used to control how much fuel ur feeding in so if u look at the HI MId and LOW throttle points u can see u can add and subtract fuel at different rpm points. u dont wanna do that without knowing where ur AFRs are standing right now

Agreed, however you can just go to your local dyno and tune for an hour or two using their wideband. Itll save you from spending a little extra money if you dont want to shell out $195 for an LC-1 or something. Either way youll only need it for a few hours.

When you say stock fuel pump, you aren't talking about the stock 240sx pump, are you? If so replace IMMEDIATELY.

The Innovate LC-1. It can be had for under $200 and its the heat. You'll need a laptop though.

How would that keep you from installing the LC-1? all these widebands use their own wiring harness and stuff...
