StarquestRescue Posted June 24, 2014 Report Share Posted June 24, 2014 http://www.apexi-usa.com/manuals/electronics/safc2_wiring.pdf They do say the black and brown should be grounded at different points with the brown closer to the ecu. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
88-cnqst-tsi Posted June 24, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 24, 2014 yeah its odd how the two grounds are meant to be off the same wire but at different points on the wire Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StarquestRescue Posted June 25, 2014 Report Share Posted June 25, 2014 The feature does not work according to the dsm guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
88-cnqst-tsi Posted June 25, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 25, 2014 okay so it powers up, I have not started the car yet because I want to know what should I set the high/low throttle % to and if there's anything that I should change in the settings before I start the car Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StarquestRescue Posted June 25, 2014 Report Share Posted June 25, 2014 I like 30% for low and 50% for high. Make sure the airflow type is set to karmen. Zero out the settings, as there may be some one else's settings still in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

88-cnqst-tsi Posted June 27, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 27, 2014 okay I will and is it normal for the safc to read a bit higher rpm then my tach, it sometimes says the same number but will jump up and down a couple hundred rpm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StarquestRescue Posted June 27, 2014 Report Share Posted June 27, 2014 got the wideband running, idle 12.0-12.5, normal driving no boost 14.5-15.5, boost 0-3psi 11.0-11.7. is that good/badI like the idle in the low 13.x It will likly be richer on cold start up.okay I will and is it normal for the safc to read a bit higher rpm then my tach, it sometimes says the same number but will jump up and down a couple hundred rpmThey may not be exactly the same, but the safc rpm should not be jumping around. Maybe look in to trying the poteiometer set up for the rpm input. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
88-cnqst-tsi Posted June 28, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 28, 2014 it was 12 fully warm and yeah ill try that, what kind of poteiometer do I need, would any of these work? http://www.rpelectro...Go&SearchType=1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StarquestRescue Posted June 28, 2014 Report Share Posted June 28, 2014 This one would probably be good. Potentiometer - 10K Linear SKU: 62-244-1 You could probably find some thing at radio shack as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

860QuestTuner Posted June 29, 2014 Report Share Posted June 29, 2014 Set cylinder setting to 2 and rpm should match up.my safc was still jumpy when watching rpm but was about spot on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
