Do you have a sunroof? If so, this what i did. On the sunroof you will see the control for the sunroof on the other sideof htat is a clip that you can take of with a flathead. then you will see 2 screws, i took those screws off, then that piece can "snap" off, i made a hole in the mount (so it would fit right where the screws were originally, and i tilted it toward the driver).....

You will have to take apart the base ofthe mount to get it up there. It is a simple install really and it looks really good. I will take pics and post them.

actually i am going to put a sunroof in, and i know exactly what your talking about. now im having some safc problems. i believe the person before me had presettings on it ? everything was higher then what it should be. it was like +20 or something. i smell gas really bad, and when i tap the gas it dies. ive adjust pretty much every setting to -20 or so and its still kinda cuts out. any setting changes i should make ? this is safc1

Verify your settings.

Read the two or three install writeups on the main site Sections -> Mods to get the correct settings.

Wow. You shouldnt just throw it in with someone elses settings. Zero it out, check your wiring and start from there... +20 and -20 shouldnt be needed...

ok my last post on this lol. the only thing i can think of at this time to why its doing this, is that when i hooked the battery back up, maybe the ecu 'learned' the old setup? cause everything is set to 0 and its still being gay. im in the process of resetting the ecu. any other suggestions? yes i did start it with his setup

now i dont know whats up....i took the battery cables off for about 5 minutes to reset it, hooked it back up with the safc having 0 across all the settings, but im getting some issues between 1000-2000. i hooked up the 02 sensor and its telling me at idle its like .91-.92, i give gas it sinks down alittle. between 1000-2000 it wants to die. its like .02-.08 or so. after 2000 its fine, but the 02 sensor shows the same, .02-.08. when i get off the gas its back at .92ish. when i give it gas again it feels like it wants to die. to me, it seems like if there is any load, it dies. if i just sit in one place its fine. but when i drive its acting up. thanks for the pics

Did you set the "IN" and "OUT" correctly? When I used to have an AFC, 6 IN and 6 OUT seemed to give me the best results.

ive done 6 in 6 out and 7 in 7 out. either way its the same. i have noticed that it really only does it between 1000-2000 where it wants to die. and do the settings take effect right away? or do i have to hit something to make it take effect

Everything you change with the SAFC is updated in realtime, you don't need to restart the unit or change menus/modes to confirm the new values.

i guess when you wire the bitch correctly it makes changes on the fly!

:hits self on head

i had the MAP wires switched around. i wired the MAP wires back to they way they were suppose to be without the SAFC, and it ran fine. so i got to thinking and switched the wires. it works fine now. i noticed on the pressure part it will go from -750 to +.5, so i guess its doing something, compared to just staying at -120. thanks for the help! peace.

i think im going to re-wire mine. cat5 cabling (ethernet cable) has 8 wires in it, and in a very thin wire. solid copper to. i think that would look really nice, and it will definitly be a black cable, not white. what you think?
