Install SAFC after TT
Install SAFC after TT
I was just wondering. Is it possible to install the SAFC after installing a turbo timer. I was just going to install a turbo timer and I already have it. But lately Ive just been doing some research and keep on reading that if I dont get some kind of EMS then any type of aftermarket parts I put on would be kinda pointless.
So I looked it up and it seems the SAFC is the most common and easiest to use. So I decided Ill use that but Im worried that once I install the TT I will mess up any hope of installing the SAFC. Also has anybody used that ECU wiring harness?
Thanks again everybody for your help.

which TT are you installing? really, all TT needs to do is run the car at certain amount of time to keep the turbo from overheating itself (really doesn't matter on modern day turbo that's oil and water cooled like ours).
hks type 0, which i have, doesn't tap into your ecu. it does have the rpm ecu tap option, but the thing just reads the volts and determines the auto timing from there. Otherwise, just set it and it's done.
you just need to tap into the ignition, which is no problem even with EMS.
in other words, don't worry about it. Also, don't get apexi tt, they suck and they read narrow a/f ratio from stock. they tap into your ecu.

Actually I am installing the Apexi. Does anybody else know about the ECU harness. Should I install the harness then the turbo timer and SAFC all together? Help appreciated. I wanna get this stuff done.
