I was wondering if this is a good thing to get for my engine because I have welded up my own intake arm that goes to the throttle body. Other things that I have done to the car are a header, high flow cat, and a Borla cat-back exhaust system. Would this be a good thing to get or not? Is it a good thing to get rid of the MAF sensor on my S4, or do I need more power adders before I get this? Thanks

You cant get rid of the AFM unless you go with a standalone(haltech, ect..). You shouldnt really need to add any fuel or anything right now either.

I bet an SAFC would make power on even a stock NA. They run very rich and you can get some power by leaning them out. I'd only do it on a dyno of course with a good wide band O2 hooked up.

My impression of the S-AFC is that they are only a band aid and look cool in your car. I was tuning my car, S-AFC for that matter with a wideband <span style='font-size:14pt;line-height:100%'>O</span><span style='font-size:8pt;line-height:100%'>2</span> sensor. I didn't really like how well it worked but it'll help if only a minimal amount.

With everything that is out there for turbo cars, I doubt the SAFC would do too much but I have seen a couple guys get good gains on their NA's with just this tuning piece after their other usual bolt ons were done.
|
I think the SAFC is supposed to be good for around 10hp on an N/A. I'll find out when I get around to installing mine.
|
If you buy an S-AFC you buy it for the looks mostly.

So most of you say it does nothing. But I would like to hear what Nemesis gets with his and I will make my decision based on that. Thanks, and keep me posted.

Most guys use them to add larger secondaries to their t2s(720cc). Yes you can lean out the rpm/load ranges with an s-afc even on an n/a to gain some power. 10 hp sounds like a good general estimation. |
