People with SAFC

I think my ECU is having a hard time adjusting to the SAFC. Problems include: under hard acceleration sometimes the engine studders, and sometimes the car will have a rough idle. Other times the car just stalls at a light. Could it be the connections for the airflow are bad or is it the SAFC's fault? Also i have not tuned it yet. I left the curve at 0% for every rpm increment.

Thanks,
Justin

your SAFC is probably not properly installed. JaimeCBR had his professionally done by some *******es who are pros and they fcked up his car as what your describing. If prior to you having that SAFC the car was running fine then thats your problem. Another way to test it out is at idle set add or subtract fuel. If you subtract fuel while at idle and the car wants to shut off then is properly connected. If not then check your wiring it is installed improperly.

Are all your settings set? Hot-wire 4-in, 4-out, Sensor Cal. 1-in, 1-out, 6-cylinder, incline throttle. Throttle setting 39%-low, 40%-high.

Cool, now that you mentioned it, I got most of the parts, just waiting for my driverside lsd/abs axle and flywheel. Would you guys like to do most of the conversion for me for some money? I'm talking about a few hundreds for the both of you to split, let me know man. I'm a little hesitant on doing this all by myself.

I installed my SAFC-II on my own, so far its working well but the first week, it threw out 0505 codes every other day. Now it hasn't so I guess it adjusted to it. The weird thing is that when I pull these 0505 or the computer it didn't pull up anything so I double checked with the ecu and same thing happened again??
