Chicago Crew Thread #2

[DaveSlow]

I declare that our project car will be called the "Crapshoot car" because we bought it not knowing what we would find and whether or not we'd make money. I'll take pictures of what maddog pulled out when I come home for x-mas break in 3 weeks. None of the less the "crap" we keep finding defintely fits the title Crapshoot car accurately.

if it's 25% bigger then -28 to -30 is leaner... the closer to 0 is a richer mixture and I think there was a thread about how there's a different conversion factor b-sides (#-360/360 x 100 = % correction on AFC) 'cause if that were the case then the biggest injectors that could be used would be 540cc but there's an old thread that states that you can use up to 720cc injectors w/ the AFC... being too lazy to find that thread I found the first one that shows my findings is that the NA can run up to 420cc injectors with the stockers being 210cc

Biggest Injectors for SAFC on FWD???

either way, the AFC or AFCII in this case is a total POS and should NEVER be counted on to tune ANY fuel system upgrade without dyno-tuning and the use of a wide-band O2 sensor

just wish I had the money to do the GM MAF/Translator conversion, that'd solve A LOT of head-ache... but going to Austria in a couple months means not really the time or money to deal with this until I finish school at the end of June(semester in Austria is from 3/6-6/30)

i've added a finder's fee/reward for my exhaust. (if you can convince sergio to buy it, i'll throw in an extra $10)

Your right, my brain went retarded there.

[VR4 Playa]

it's all good, like I said the S-AFCII sucks!!! hands down

now is anyone in the area running the GM MAF-T setup? and if so, is it pretty much just plug and play for up to 550cc injectors with the S-AFC or other piggyback used to fine-tune?

[i3igpete]

if you're genuinely interested i can snap some better pictures at home and line it all up. but right now all i've got are old picture of when it was still on ro's car and how it is right now (all in a pile by my garbage can.)

Have you tried posting it on W3si?????? There's lots of 3S cars in WI, but not many of the owners check the Chicago thread.... Just a thought.

Nice!


Quick question again, Matt at DR qouted me 1000 dollars for a 3.5" exhuast system, with 3" dual catback, you think i could have that custome made from around here for cheaper?
