safc= Super Air Fuel Controller
I guess it allows the air/fuel ratio to be adjusted, so if you are running lean you can adjust accordingly and make more power

SAFC = Stand Alone Fuel Controler. It's independent from your ECU. It alows for fine tuning your fuel system in conjunction with Turbos/ Boost, NOS or any other mods which would lean out the air/fuel mixture. L8r

Super Air Flow Converter? Ya, that's a new one.:chuckles: What does it convert the air to? Boost?:rofl:

Hey man, I have the box right here in my room and that is what it stands for. Here's the description from the US Apexi site:
Modifies air-flow meter signal (pressure signal in some vehicles) to optimize fuel-air ratio; Vacuum Fluorescent Display (VFD).
The second-generation S-AFC is a fuel computer that adjusts fuel/air ratio by modifying the air-flow meter/MAP sensor signal. The S-AFC features a user-definable, eight-point, adjustable fuel curve that can be set in 500 RPM increments. The range of fuel adjustment is +/- 50% at each of the user-defined setting points. On hot-wire vehicles, the Deceleration Air Flow Correction function is capable of curing the erratic idle and stall problems associated with open-atmosphere blow-off valves on hot-wire air-flow meter systems. The S-AFC is capable of monitoring and replaying the following data channels in Numerical, Analog Meter and Graph displays: Intake Manifold Vacuum/Boost Pressure, Air Flow Capacity, Intake Manifold Pressure, Karmann Frequency, Engine RPM, Throttle Position, and Air Flow Correction %.
See :-) So it converts the air flow meter signal.
Best wishes,
Fin

Sorry Acelic, not to be flaming you, but i've never heard it called that b4. I must be "Dazed & Confused"(Zepplin). I'd like to check that out after you get it installed. Since your in Orlando, maybe you will have it in before the March 16th get together, and i'll see it then. L8r

Hi TRDtuner,
It's all good :-) I'm hoping to have it done by then. I've got to find a good dyno place around here that will help me with it. Eitherway, if I don't have it installed, I'll bring the thing to the meet so you can take a look at it. It says it right on the box "Super Air Flow Converter". I thought it was "Fuel" as well at first. See you March 16th man!
Take care,
Fin
P.S. Zeppelin rules! "I've been dazed and confused for so long it's not true!"

hey if i have a fuel/air ratio guage in my car and i puit one of those computers in my car can i tune it like that without goin to the dyno place??
thanx

You're all wrong! How about that! It stands for Super-Awesome Fuel Combuster!

How about
Super-Aggressive Fuel Constipator?
