Got a SAFC? Post pictures of its location...

[OVR444]

Hi all; Well I have been sitting on my SAFC II for some time now; finally I am thinking about actually installing it.

Looking for inspiration on where to mount it. Keeping in mind I like things fairly hidden and trying to keep it looking factory inside.

My first thought is in-front of the transmission lever (in-front of the coin tray) .

Help please!

 

[naughtika]

how about in front of the ashtray?

 

[unclepaulie]

i think thats what brett meant


i in the whole where the sunglass holder is, its useless so may as well pop it out and putt the safcII in there


also, some more spots:

(5) if you were tricky you could put in in the top section of the centre console

I've installed Kev's safc and mounted it in the sun glass holder.. not quite a fit, you'll need to chop it up more than you think..

but if you can make it fit and close the lid.. it'll be a winner!!!

also try to keep the sun away from it.. i've noticed that during day time, i get a little more knock than usual..

chris are you running a tuned 7202 plus a safc?

 

[naughtika]

nope... was running safc2 then replaced with 7203

Brett bought my SAFC2

 

[unclepaulie]

ahh gotcha

...Then it has lived its life sitting on my computer desk staring at me, next to the pivot engine start button and some other goodies I couldn't be bothered installing.

Thanks for the suggestions everyone! Gives me some places to try out.

 

[unclepaulie]

ill take that start button off your hands

it got me wonder, can you have tuned ECU plus SAFC? Will there be any complications?

 

[SLY-031]

What is the point? Why use the SAFC to bend a signal to close to what you want when you can just tune it to exactly what you want with the ECU in the first place.

 

[gorgath]

Correct, but ECU tuned is fixed and you need to do another calibration. What if you want to tweak a bit? Will the SAFC will be suffice?

I've got an AFC Neo also sitting on my desk awaiting install, probably going with suggested location (2) or atleast somewhere semi visibile

Will probably go the usual spot for the Apexi pen turbo timer I've got also.

 

[SLY-031]

IF you have a decent tuner you shouldn't need to do "another calibration". If you are adding or something that requires such a drastic change, you should be getting a re-tune anyway. If it is only something minor, it probably won't need a minor tweak, the ECU is probably smart enough to add/remove timing/fuel.

I've finally decided that I'll be installing mine rather than going with a retuned ECU. Simply for the cost saving. I have the A'PEXi stand, and will be installing it in front of my (non existent) ashtray using the stand.

 

[AKKO]

Temporary install position for my AFC Neo, I've got a stand on the way with a fiberglass mount planned for the end game.
Button illumination has also since been changed to red.

Why are you bothering with the AFC when a remap is a far more cost effective solution!?!
