ok so i have a 97 integra with a biult b18 in it and im running on 10psi. im having a problem with it getting lean at about 5k and i have the safc tuned all the way up to 50+ but it still gets lean i cant figur it out. im running 440cc rc injectors and a walboro 255 pump so i should be geting plenty of fuel.
b18 turbo with safc
- Thread starter 96sohccivic
- Start date
and also if i get on it and go past 5 and it goes lean the car will start running like s**t then i turn it off and back on and it runs fine but it only does this when it gets lean. i got it tuned perfect for low rpm but once i hit 5k my a/f gauge goes all the way to the red and my car dosent really go anywhere becuase its geting lean. i should be able to have the fuel settings in the negative. all the other cars i tuned with an safc where always in the negative thats why i dont get it
tune with something better than safc
i have used an safc on to other hondas and they ran just fine and are still running just fine i just cant figure this one out. im thinking that either my fuel filter is cloged or the ecu im using is messed up and its a d16y7 ecu.
i still dont get the use of an SAFC on a turbo honda. it has no control of the ignition event, its more expensive than a chipped ecu with a conversion harness. you are always fighting the stock ecu as it tries to adapt to overcome that SAFC changes.
ok i dont want to here i need a better tune and a chipped ecu i just need help getting it running with the safc. and no it is not more expensive than a chipeed ecu i paid 40 dallors for it which is wayyyyy cheaper than i chiped ecu.I JUST NEED HELP WITH GETTING MY CAR RUNNING RICH
Oh And The Turbo Is A T3/t4 Turbonetics Turbo
pffff, attitude. Do you have a fpr?
...let us know how the future rebuild goes.
the only way your going to get it running correctly is with something better than the safc ... that is why people dont use the safc because they have fuel problems like your are having right now because of the lack of options ... I didnt know people still used those things 
what do you mean the future rebiuld it only has 10,000 miles on it and i dont plan on rebiulding for a while
alright well thanks for all yalls help ill just figure it out and tell yall what it is later since no of yall have any help besides dont use the safc.
why would you post if all your saying is sigh. that is no help at all
the motor is not f**ked yall do not no anything about safc's i guess they wil not blow your motor up if you no what your doing i have tuned two other cars with safc's and they are both over 2 years old and still run just fine so dont tell me it will blow my motor up. please nobody post on here if your not going to help me out
ok i got it runningalittle better but it is still getting lean. i figerd out if i keep the throtel in low throtel it wont get lean at all but once i push the pedal far enofe to were high throtel kicks in it gets lean.
im saying if you keep running lean it will mess your motor up... not to mention that your actuall power output is probably weaksauce .
Why dont you at least get something like Chrome?
