VAFCII in and out setting... where???

I just resently got a 3.5" LR MAF housing and i will be installing this as soon as i can figure out where on the VAFCII is the in and out setting, i was sitting the parking lot at work today and said im going to look through the entire setting for this in and out setting, unless there is something i overlooked i just never found the setting, so that stalled me from installing the MAF cause if my calculations is correct it should be a 89" MAF housing and im sure there will need to be fuel added at idle and else where also the setting should be 1in 17out on the VAFCII but i cant find it, somebody help please, i will write down every seeting of my VAFCII most likely tomorrow

Dude, if this was solved I would know the answer. It hasn't been.

The SAFCII is 1/17 .. the VAFC, IIRC does not have that many options.

And It's actually 82mm.

Been through this a few times. Try using the largest contrast of engine sizes (D15 to J35) which is 3/6.

I would set a day aside, pick the largest difference, and if that isnt lean enough, tune it the rest of the way yourself, which you CAN do.

You can't tune without a wideband, and you need one that datalogs that way you can use the numbers to tune.

How will you tune it for different rpm intervals? unless you watch it and write it down or something while your driving or have someone else do it actually I dont think you'll be able to do it yourself while driving.

The VAFC doesn't go to 17.


Are you sure you're not using a larger MAF housing and a SAFCII? Because those are obviously the settings for it as seen in this thread.

yes i have a stock maf and yes i have a wideband.. and it reads extremely lean or goes extremely riched based upon the maf settings.. When I change the in and out the car cuts off or idles differently... The car idled best on in 1 out 17 but was still very lumpy...

I see from the thread you posted 17 is the correct out but what is the correct in... ?

Well first things first.

Do you have the manual for it and if so, have you read through it to find the relative settings? The 1/17 is for a 5.5 gen using a Q45 MAF(1 is Q45, 17 is 5.5 Gen Maxima). That is for the SAFCII.

Not really, we already pretty much knew that ( as I had always suspected, the Neo would be the same as the SAFCII WRT IN/OUTS), it's the VAFCII that still lies a mystery when coupled with the LRMAF.

What would be nice to know if the NEO can be 'manipulated' as the VAFC and have 2 maps combined into 1.

If this is true for the NEO, it would then make it a, I believe, 16x2 map.

$400 price tag makes it an epic fail in my book... EB can be had for less. Too bad they discontinued it...

NEO does have ease of installation on it's side, and shopping around males it cheaper.

True, but as far as instalation goes, the extra 24 wires only belong to the 6 injectors and 6 coilpacks. (IN/OUT for each) And it's only 12 wires if you opt against using the coilpack harness. All 6 injector wires are right next to eaxh other and you have to cut/intercept these which IMO is way easier than splicing. But that is also just personal opinion.
