safc2, 7afe? Options

[Bitter]

does the apexi safc2 work with the 7afe? and do i need anything besides the unit itself? i might be able to get a slightly used one for about $150, and i'm wondering what else i'd need to make it work, how hard the install is, and what sort of gains i *could* see with the 'bolt ons' i have, those are listed in my signature. i supposed the best benefit of it would be improved fuel milage.


now, being a 93....i really dont have a good way to monitor the a/f besides my fluke meter hooked to the ox1 on the diagnostics port. but the stock O2 sensor is of course a narrow band sensor, by watching the O2 voltages could i equate those to a/f well enough to get a decent tune?

I don't know how much you would get on a 7afe. What I did with my 5s was pull the o2 on the converter and it tricks the computer into thinking the car is running rich, so it leans out the mixture. It's kind of risky to do, but it helps out a little. I'm sure a safc2 would help more. I think maybe 10hp would be a reasonable estimate. That's probably to much though. If you can find any more of those $150 safc2's, let me know.
