kool,
i wont be running that much.
is a apexi safc2 ok to tune a low boost intercooled setup on a B18B, with stock pump injectors?
upgrading them later but wanna get motor turboed 1st.
looking at crower turbo cams aswell

if u want to use an afc, get 440cc injectors atleast. its called a hack and needs double the size injectors otherwise ur computer will throw a cell..

an emanage on the other hand can handle stock injectors.

while an safc will "work", it's a VERY poor option

hondata/uberdata/chrome/whatever other ems floats your boat is a far superior choice

Yes, but your motor cant....

either way, you need to upgrade injectors

**locote** · 30-09-2005 08:53 PM

would 450cc injectors be good for 300fwhp????

**ProECU** · 30-09-2005 09:56 PM

yeah, should be, if you need to, raise the fuel pressure.

i beg to differ. i know of plenty of sohcs running greddy kits, which have lasted alot longer (read; muiltple years, still going) then alot of built engines running standalones. its all about the limits and what you are happy with.
