SAFC? Options

[rzanology]

okay so im going to buy this to go along with my 5sfte.

heres the ebay link

how easy is this to tune? I know pressure uses this....does anyone else in the nyc area use this? Can we share maps things like that?

word from the wise....

if you "plan" for an e-manage ultimate then wait to install your setup and save until you have it....don't rush into sumthing without the right parts/all the parts buying an SAFC2 will just hurt your wallet in the long run...wait, save and buy the emanage if thats wat you really want

this is some of the best advice ive seen you give, dan.
good call!
i really cant stress enough how much the emanage ultimate will help if we can get it to work properly for our cars.
the rub of the emanage ultimate, is that there is no plug and play setup for the 5sfe, forget about 5sfte.
i was hoping to be the guinie pig of sorts and have what i "think" will be a correct wiring diagram, but the only thing is that untill i have the unit in my hands and in the car working, i cant say for sure.
the safc will work, just not well. period.
its like trying to build a motor with a pair of vice grips and a pipe wrench...yea, it may work, but how well?
we REALLY need some form of dynamic timing control.
the safc will not do that for us at all.
the btm is an option, but then your over 400$ if you buy both the safc and that new.
the regular emanage does not offer the timing features that the ultimate does, and IIRC does not alter the fuel injector signal the same way.

lol i wrote that back in july....but eh i only ever talk serious in other locations...really the market for tech talk isn't here
