DSM 1 gen bov
wut im buying
cartech 2025 FMU
acell afpr

2800 stall converter
zeitronix zt-2 wideband controller
apex-i s-afc
think i listed everything, anyways thank you
What kind of stall converter are you going to get? And where from? Just curious.
well i found a place who rebuilds them on ebay, ranging around 150 dollars, they have excellent feedback, and basically all they sell is converters
If you're getting an Fuel Pressure Regulator, you don't need an SAFC. It won't help you either in boost.
Also, did you get the flange for the BOV?

yeah the bov came with the flange
heres a pic for all of the bov, shes mint
as for the safc and afpr, ive read a few times over now, that to make the brown tops idle u need the both of them, any more input on that?
On the brown tops and the reflash i had NO problems while idling. That was with a 35 lb base pressure.
how did u reflash the 98 comp? or did u do the 00 comp swap

Are they the ones that are painted black?
Having an SAFC does not cancel out your need for an adjustable FPR because the fuel pressure is not electronically controlled. If you want to raise fuel pressure (which you will have to do with larger injectors / boost) then you need an AFPR. As for SAFC, it's no way to tune for boost. Either go with an FMU or a piggback / standalone such as E-manage / Megasquirt.

thats wut im going with, like i mentioned cartech fmu, accel fpr, and a safc
as for the trq converter, yes its black, anyone ever bought one?

If you're getting an FPR, there is no need for an SAFC. Scratch it off your list buddy...

^^^listen to NJHK you don't need the SAFC if u gettin a fpr
People say that what doesn't kill you in this life
will make you stronger. I'm not sure if that is true
or not, but i do know one thing-You have to learn from
it and it has to make you better.......it has to.......

No, an FMU eliminates the need for an SAFC. The AFPR is for adjusting fuel pressure at IDLE. The FMU controls fuel pressure added in boost.

alright scratch the safc, anythign else guys?

Well lets go off of what you said, An SAFC is pointless in boost, so where else would it be useful...in vacuum or at idle. If he has an Adjustable Fuel Pressure regulator, he'll be running the right base pressure that he needs and won't need to fiddle around with an SAFC to try and idle properly with bigger injectors (which it probably won't even do so well at that).

cant you use a cartech FMU to change the base pressure as well as the pressure in boost?

What Hahn Racecraft does is get rid of the stock FPR and uses it to adjust base pressure, so in that case, it does.

All you guys saying scratch the S-AFC haven't tried to idle brown tops on an LD9 and speak from a lack of experience.
If you'd care to run the calculations and prove to me that you're correct, that would be tremendous, because at this point in time you're completely wrong as to what his needs for the S-AFC are.

We aren't trying to put down the SAFC but we are saying if he is going to use an AFPR, he doesn't really need an SAFC.

I know adam. Explain to me why he doesn't "need" an s-afc for his setup? Because his needs have nothing to do with boost-referenced fuel.

I love the JBO but this is the only car site in the world that thinks the SAFC is worthless. I won't even pretend that I know how all the electronics and signals work but it IS beneficial in a turbo setup. It is not to used to solve fuel problems, but it works very well to adjust fuel when you are running a little rich or a little lean. It will not replace an AFPR or FMU, so if you don't have the money don't buy the Apex'i unit. However if you can get a cheap one on ebay and don't have the money or want to get the Megasquirt or other standalones, get a SAFC2. You can pull or add enough fuel to make a considerable difference in your A/F ratios.
Boosted Eco @9psi for now....WRX come spring.....
