Re: Tuning...

Anyone have a link to what the initial settings should be. The links above are good but dont go over what the initial setup should be.
I know the sensor type is Karman, but should the throttle sensor be up or down? and what other suggestions would you make to a guy that the only expirence hes had with these is reading the manual 4 times.

Re: Tuning...

Read the instructions that came with your AFC. If they are in Japaneese, just go on Apexi's website and download the English versions in PDF-format.

Re: Tuning...

just so happens that the page where you find out how to check the throttle voltage is open right in front of me. ::slaps myself in the forehead::

Re: Tuning...

If your running a 2G, DSMLINK is the only way to go, as you can't read knock, or adjust timing using a SAFC.

After all is said and done, I'd just scrap our slow ass A/T 2G's man, and go over to the "Darkside", and go faster for less money and heartache.

IMHO

Re: Tuning...

Sell the AFC if you already bought it and go DSMLink. Much better to tune with and use. Otherwise, your simply guessing what your doing and its a hit or miss situation. My opinion. But if your running the AFC, some basic settings http://roadraceengineering.com/newafcsetting.htm You can find a car that fits what you have and get a descent start on somthing to work with. On my car, it worked alright til I bought dsmlink, then I dropped about 1 sec in the 1/4. But, that was without and dyno time. You should be able to get a little bit better with a wideband and some time on the dyno.
