Safc Good For A 32 Turbo Then A 33 Turbo?

[GTAAAH]

Ok so i have been reading up on what to upgrade and decided SAFC is the best next upgrade. Mods so far are

3 inch turbo back exhaust

fmic

boost controller

pod

I plan on upgrading to a 33 turbo (possibly buy one thats already been high flowed) and was wondering if the SAFC will still be good enough to handle it (i cant afford to go the power fc)? The turbo upgrade will likely be my last upgrade and i cant afford too much. Also is the SAFC likely to boost the performance with my standard turbo charger by enough to justify getting it tuned, until i can afford the new turbo at which time id have to get it retuned

thx, i did try searching but safc in search mode only weilded about 7 results

How much boost do you plan to run?

[GTAAAH]

12 psi on stock turbo once i get the 33 ill go with the boost most 33 boosted rb20 owners go with

my r33 turbo on rb20 handels the stock ecu fine, so the safc should work nicely

[GTAAAH]

ohh nice, well it is a budget setup so am i likely to get close to the same kw/torque gains by just re-doing the standard ecu (with the rb20 turbo then the 33 turbo later)?

get the safc when you get the 33 turbo then tune it.

standard computer should be fine though. if you want to be sure, get it dyno'd and they'll check your a/f's.

[GTAAAH]

ah ok, ill stick with getting the stock one re-tuned, thanks moiyt

[SECURITY]

it'll be a waste of a tune if you tune it twice, or do you mean you'll get the stock ecu remapped when you get the 33 turbo?

btw, look into getting a vg30det turbo which is the single turbo 300zx motor which ran a t3. its slightly bigger than a t28 which is the r33 turbo. you'll probably just need a new dump pipe.

[WazR32GTSt]

if you mean you are getting the r33 turbo then getting the stock ecu re-tuned... then you are going the best option

if this is not what you mean, maybe it should be what you men?

You dont need to buy a safc you would be far better off getting your stock ECU re-tuned as safc will only change your AFR's. Where as a retune will change your AFR's, timing ect. If your in Victoria I know Dr drift does ECU re-tunes on r32's

cheers

[GTAAAH]

yepx sorry if i was a bit unclear stupid work messing with my head. Gonna get the 33 turbo on first then get stock ecu retuned. Hmm i am in victoria so when it comes time, ill go looking for dr drift. Ill also look into the vg30det turbo, see if itll spool up fast enough and then decide

thx guys

(quick side note can some one tell me which program or how to resize pics of your car so they dont look retarded!!?!?!?!)
