car boggs with SAFC???

aight guys i just got an safc from a friend...no manual so i had to find everything online. well after i hooked it up it seemed to bogg after about 3500 rpms. then i tried messin around with it a little and it made it worse. i couldnt even get any kinda power in any other gears besides 1st. i dont know if i hooked it up wrong or what but im sure im close because even though i know a/f ratio gauges arent accurate i am still gettin bad readings...when i go past 3500 rpms it sooo lean it doesnt even light up. any thoughts??? ive never used an safc before but i got it because soon im thinking of running turbo again and got it for afc hack (hopefully by the end of the summer)...well heres my setup for now...maybe someone can help me set the damn thing.

-92 LS motor...obd1 ecu
-b16 stock exhaust manifold 4-2-1 w/ no cat and 2 1/4 pipe
-msd plug wires w/ 6al ignition and blaster coil
-reground cams...dont know what degree it came with the motor
-im not sure what other internals but i know it has really high compression for an LS motor...last time i checked (190-195-195-199)

i really dont know how to set the safc so i just put regular 4 cyl and pressure sensor (how sure what to put on the in/out). if anyone can give me a little input on this please let me know. sorry im not trying to act like a nOoB but this stuff is kinda new to me so i guess i kinda feel like one

are you throwing any codes? What are your afc settings? did you set it up properly (in menu system)?

you need to get it tuned. only way to do it properly is on a dyno with a wideband o2.

Yep, otherwise leave everything at 0% until you can see what the a/f ratio is doing when fiddling with the settings.
