Q & A

btw wanna ask wad's the 5-button-safc for? is it an ECU? and wad's a piggyback? confused wit all this technical terms...


Hi bro..
1. For the component for boost cut, I will post it to you.
Pls email me your postal address. I'll send out to ASAP.
If you have read my write up, then you will know when to solder it to.
2. Injection cars all have ecu/ecm- electronic control unit/management.
This controls injector, timing, water temp, fan and link to all the sensors in the car.

piggy back- the term is original "to carry someone on your back"
- in car management system... "it ride/piggy back on the original ecu"
mean original ecu + SAFC...

3. 5 Button SAFC- the 2nd generation of analog Super Air Fuel Convertor made by Apexi
It is use to control- increase/reduce fuel in cars with fuel injector system...
After car is upgrade or ecu modified, fuel might be too much(rich) or too litte(lean), so these 5 Button SAFC (piggyback) can help do some basic adjustment at 5 fix rpm settings...

Hope this help....To learn more pls "search"... TQ
