it's what size of injectors, it's base what kind of mods do you have?? usually with SAFC anythign 660-720cc is more than enough. I ran SAFC in my car i made 345whp and 347lbt on dynojet. I can tell you SAFC is not a junk, it works and it works well. don't take what people said, it's all come down to what do you want and what's your budget?? Remember it's your money and it's your car.

Why are you wanting to increase your injector size when 10 out of 10 times when we tune an SAFC we are pulling fuel out of the stock injectors....
If you manipulate the transfer function of the MAF too much you will have way too much timing advance in the engine
All that will happen with bigger injectors installed is you will make idle and drivability suck.
Please re- think what you are doing..

Your don't want too much timing, that is what pops motors 8/10 cases.

Most GOOD flashers can scale the injectors. Check with jestrtuning.com.

pretty stupid thing to say.. no flashes have come anywhere close the the whp increase that safcII has provided in norcal on mildly modded cars.. so if you think its junk because safcII cars make more power and run faster then i guess thats your problem

Here is the thing. You can run huge injectors as long as you tune it with a wideband. It is a lot harder to do on this unit, but it can be done.

I am still researching, but I think the way to go is with a reflash and a safc-2. Get them to set the injector size and timing. Then road tune with the safc II and a wideband. But heck what do I know I do not even own an evo yet!

i Think safc2 can handle 50 percent bigger so the stock 550 cc injectors times .5 is 275. SO that means that up to 825 cc injectors could be used.
