Contour Enthusiasts Group Archives Forums Modifications General Mods Apexi 8 point safc vs 12 point safc

Cool, and thanks for the quick reply Stazi. Are there any obvious downfalls to the Apexi system that one should know about before dropping 3 bills?

No downfalls aside from requiring a proper dyno tune to make the most from it.

Don't you only get 'data' from the knock sensor only if there's a........knock? Not trying to be a smart arse, but maybe that could be why.

Dude, are you reading the posts? I DID get it to work and thus it reads the knock counts. All I am saying is that I have no idea on what to do with the knock associated settings in the S-AFC II.....

So yes, I have seen knock, you always will see something, it's just a matter of what is an acceptable amount.

Any Japanese CEGer's here that can read and translate documents?

No I'm blindly thumbing through them just to set you off

Actually I assumed you only found WHERE to tap in but was not getting any success in............bah. Obviously I was wrong.

Sorry I get set off easily in my old age...

My roomates girlfriend is 100% Japanese. She will help us. Someone can mail or fax me the text and I will have her translate. Let me know!!

I'll scan it and post it tomorrow.

I will sound off again. Why settle for a 8 or 12 pt Apexi with Japanese instructions? When a 200 pt, every 40 rpm mafterburner is available instead of every 1000 rpm adjustment of the apexi. Its designed for Fords and written in English, with free immediate tech support. All for only $300.

I can adjust the a/f at 3400, 3440, 3480, 3520 and 3560 rpms. All with different amounts of gas around the 3500 rpm IMRC opening point.

Eh.....no laptop and I won't run my PC from my house to the shop every time I need to do something. it just hasn't been released in the US yet, that's the only reason the manual isn't in English. These were for the Japanese market IIRC.

The SAFC II is better than the first one. The first one I would say has proven itself since it has been on the market as a viable source to 'tune' your car. Sure there are more detailed options out there, but obviously there are those (like myself) that find this option just fine.
