Golddigga Posted October 9, 2006 Author Share Posted October 9, 2006 I am going to pay up for the subscription as soon as the Supe is purchased. If people are not allowed to ask questions before buying i.e. when it's too late to do anything about it then why are you letting me register and post to the forum. I fully intend to sign up but thought somebody could help me with my concerns Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustGav Posted October 9, 2006 Share Posted October 9, 2006 I would hazard a guess then that the unit is an apexi SAFC-I or an SAFC-II. Both these units fudge the air signal that runs to the ECU. Unless there are some mods on the car it doesn't do much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Golddigga Posted October 9, 2006 Author Share Posted October 9, 2006 Does it do any damage to the engine or cause it to burn more fuel for example which would be pretty dumb with no other mods on the car? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twin Turbo Jim Posted October 9, 2006 Share Posted October 9, 2006 The guy selling me my car has just told me that it has one of these in the glovebox, my question is and I know this makes me sound like a right tw*t but..... ....what the hell is it and what does it do? Also, is a good or bad thing? Ive got one on mine. it was on there when i imported it. There arent any engine mods that i know of except an air filter but if you adjust it, i found that it does make a difference to the cars performance. As far as i know it just increases the fuel, perhaps with my air filter this increases the power. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marty Posted October 9, 2006 Share Posted October 9, 2006 it may be the apexi safr (air / fuel ratio) , like pheonix says, it does what it sounds like it does, adjusts the air / fuel ratio. You dont need one of these unless your are bpu+ or single in my opinion, and if you dont know what you are doing you will pop your engine! so be careful Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
