Safc And Sitc Tune

[mickr33]

Hi there. As the title says i had the SITC tuned on my R33 GTST along with the retune of the SAFC.

Personally i was hoping for a bit more but Nigel said the car with it's current mods is about spot on.

He also made a good point in saying he could always have acheived a higher result, but do you want

a good safe tuneor an unsafe tune. Mods are Walbro 255lt pump, full exhaust, FMIC, SAFC-SITC combo

and standard turbo running 12 psi using the turbotech controler. Cheers

[Mr. Oizo]

nice

did he print out a 'before' graph as well?

Thats a fair result, i've seen pfc equiped cars make less on stock turbos

hello michael, always better to have a safe tune. when is the hi-flow coming?

Mate thats a nice result... anywhere near 190rwkw with that combo / turbo I would consider to be good.

If my car was rwd thats the sort of figure Id expect.

Query - your car manual or auto?? Auto I presume...............

My Rb25det auto 4wd Stagea has 160awkw @ 12psi, similar mods. Im hoping for 210-ishawkw with a highflow at 1bar

Hey Tangles. No the car is manual. I only got the SITC because i already had the SAFC.

Hi Paul. Since the SITC upgrade yesterday i must say it does feel alot

smoother right through as apposed to just the SAFC alone.

Hi Leech. Not sure on the AFR's as i assumed this would have been on the print out.

It only seems to show the boost levels (not bad turbotech controler). Before and after

as in power output only minimal as it was more for the sorting out timing issues. But

as previously said the power is much more smooth and nicer to drive. Also the drive

home didnt have any pinging issues which is always good. I am interested to see whether

or not pinging is present during the warmer days?

[osiris23]

how much are these SITC? i have been looking at the SAFC2 for awhile now doing some reading on them but not as yet looked at the SITC?

[HVYMTL]

mickr33 have you ran your car down the 1/4 at all? i have a r33 aswell with just cat back system, pod, turbotech controller @ 10psi, and safc (but not tuned at all) and i ran a 13.9 with a stuffed clutch, i need some money so i can go run again with the new clutch.

but i am yet to get on a dyno

Only because i already had the SAFC i purchased the SITC due to tight arse issues.

The best advise i can give to you as many would i think agree is that:

If i didnt have neither the SAFC or ITC i would have saved up for a power fc. Trust me

this is the way to go. Do not bother with an SAFC ITC.

Hi there. No i havent as yet been down the quarter. You should get

some good gains once the SAFC is tuned. But you will still have the

issues of timing. I was getting an awfull holding back feeling from

10psi before the SAFC (like someone has applied the handbrake slightly),

which is the rich and retard thingy i believe. SAFC fixed it nicely with a 25kw

gain as well.

[handyandy]

mick, you should think about selling the safc and itc and get a pfc later down the track.

Then you have a lot more tuneing options if you decide to say open the engine or slap a bigger turbo on.

just a thought, simon
