SAFC settings

What do you guys say my settings should be around, I dont have money to get it on a dyno with a wideband. I just want it to run pretty good for now, mean while I save money for hondata and tuning. I am running stock injectors and stock fuel pump. Pressure is boosted up but I need a gauge to know exactly where its at. Thanx.

without knowing your setup, it's impossible to help you out.

Rememer this though
A: the ass-dyno is not calibrated and lies
B: make small changes at a time the stock R fuel map is rich in certain areas, benefits can be had by removing fuel in these areas, but again without knowing your mods.....

Turbonetics t3t4 turbo
SFP manifold and downpipe
b&m fpr
I am only boosting 4 psi right now but want to boost around 7-8. I dont have any idea what my air fuel is at right now. I just want to drive it without worrying about fuel failure. What should I set my fpr at??

I am only boosting 4 psi with stock settings on the SAFC, but want to boost up to 7-8. I do have some RC 550 injectors to go in it but dont have a fuel pump yet. I was just wondering what u guys settings are at with stock injectors.

the afc will NOT trim enough fuel to run 550's. you are probably detonating now honestly. your FPR is 1:1 so you are way short on fuel. it is not the fuel pump that is holding you back most it is the injectors and the fact you don't even have a FMU. where is your timing set at? if I were you I would get a 12:1 fmu and missing link and drive it like that. don't even mess with settings till you get to a dyno. if you are runnin a missing link now you are DEFINITLY detonating. the missing link tricks the ECU into thinking you are at 0 vaccum when you are at full boost so the ecu does give you enough fuel. so this is what you need:

12:1 fmu-100 bucks used
missing link-20 buck used

until you have those 2 things I wouldn't drive the car at all....at least get a EGT gauge and if you are over 800 degrees C I wouldn't drive it.
