Default is this ok for ls/vtec turbo

92 civic hb
built ls/vtec motor
garrett t3/t4 turbo
apexi intercooler
b&m fuel pressure regulator
walbro 255 fuel pump
rc 550 injectors

I am running 15 lbs. of boost and I have a apexi s-afc to control the fuel. I was told to get hondata and that safc is not the thing to use for fuel control with 550 injectors.

Does anybody know?

definatly dont use the safc, its unsafe especially at 15 psi. Get hondata or uberdata or something similar.

it only limits your tuning points. not to mention it will only tune fuel and not ignition. also hondata will let you do so many things. go to hondata.com and read some and youll find out what were talking about.
