AFC question. Help.
Hey fellas, just need some information on a AFC or also known as a piggyback ECU system.
I'm very new to this topic, so any kind of information would be helpful.
My engine is a non v-tec Idsi 1.3l, at the moment it's on a J's racing 4-1 Header, Spoon mid-pipe and n1 muffler tip. I just had these installed on the car yesterday, and already i feel a much better response and acceleration, but i was just wondering wether a piggyback ECU and tuning will maximize the gains i have for these parts.
Ps: please use non-abbreviated terms (noob terms) in order for me to understand, because im completely clueless about the AFC system.
Also since it's a non v-tec (vafc) what does Safc stand for?
any help is much appreciated thankyou!

You have pretty much guaranteed you aren't going to do the research or buy the texts you need in order to do this without making your car an undriveable piece of garbage or causing severe damage.
You didn't even use the search feature on this forum.
BTW all you've done in bolting up a big free flowing exhaust with a short runner manifold on your small displacement naturally-aspirated and high-winding engine is kill what little bottom end and mid range torque you had to begin with.
Edit: This is also in the wrong section...

Haha wow, you're nice bro
I did search on google what s-afc is, but just thought that you experts would be able to tell me it in more detail, cost of it, installation wise, and all the gory details. But since you made it clear that you gave me information that is totally useless to me i will just ignore what you have just said. I said all help is appreciated, so thankyou mate

The information I gave you should have sent you off to go search instead of trying to make some sort of failed come back. It was put bluntly, but nothing I posted was factually incorrect.
Cheers, mate.

A typical AFC requires 5 wires.
Let me google that for you
First things that come up:

Apexi SAFC Air Flow Converter from AlamoMotorsports
Gee, that was tough.

Ahaha failed comeback? who said my intention was making a comeback? i just wanted to grasp knowledge of the other members of this forum mate... I don't know if you even know me but if this is how you treat all members in this forum then i think you might have a serious problem. Eventhough you might be intellectual and knowledgable at this topic, don't need to flame a noob for trying to find out
All in all, thanks for the information you gave. Appreciate it.

You could click on my profile, read what I have actually posted to others and you would see I have no problem with noobs, everyone has to start somewhere.
Lazy beggars though, are another story.
