can anyone hook it up with a pic?? I'm gonna be installing mine this weekend along with a dyno tune, i need some ideas

 

I thought we had a post about this not too long ago, either way, it works best in the glovebox or mounted in the ashtray area.

 

This is where my S-AFC used to be installed. I had no use for the ashtray, and it was an easy spot.

Now, I don't have the S-AFC.

 

Mine is sitting in the ashtray. I busted up the cover so it sits and looks stock, though the cover will depart from the ashtray under hard driving if I don't remove it first.

mine. AVC-R on top, SAFC on bottom.

 

i put an aftermarket radio and install kit in mine and mounted my safc2 on the din below the cd player and it looks good and then i will mount my turbo timer in the heater vent below the steering wheel

 

hey jjim k did you block off your vents there? i didnt put my avc-r there because i didnt want to overheat the computer that controls my boost or could blow up my car.

 

There's a couple of other threads with pics and stuff.... Pic from a while back with mine on the dash, was gonna put it under the radio but I just put other gauges under there so I'm keeping it up there.

 

Here's mine.

 

bigdv519 thats a good spot but i already have my rsm there, turbo 2 i was thinking there but then you block all the idot lights...i was thinking about on the upper right curve on the cluster bezle what do yall think?

 

to me that screams break in and steal me im paranoid all my stuff is below the dash level and wouldnt that wire get snagged by a passenger or something in a corner and stress your connections possibly screwing the car up.. again thats just my paranoia

 

[QUOTE=gxlbiscuit]to me that screams break in and steal me im paranoid

i seconed that kinda, how does this look

 

Been there for 5 years and never had a problem. I don't DD this car, only goes to car meets or driving events and the few times there has been a passenger they were 7 owners also who knew what was up. But I see your point and understand it. I put my other gauges below the radio so that spot got used and as clean as the car is I didn't want to take out the vents or other spots to mount it.

 

Why would anyone mount it in front of the gauges? It blocks half of the tach, speedometer and temp gauge...

 

Nah, I didn't block of the vents....but I don't run anything through those vents anyway. I don't use AC, and if I have the heater on, i just throw it on my feet.

 

Agreed. Once I got my SAFC-II more or less tuned, I've left it tucked away. You can't tell that I have one from outside the car (or inside, for that matter) unless I pull the ashtray cover off. Really, I don't particularly care what it's reading for the most part. If I'm running hard or doing performance testing, I'll pull the cover off & keep tabs on the max values I hit, but... daily driving, I don't watch it.

this guy is selling din plates for under the radio.

Here is where mine is mounted:

 

Why´s that?
Doesn´t work any good for you?

 

this is the way to go!!! as soon as i sell enough crap on ebay im gonna get me one of these bad boys. soooo nice. wonder how well it will stay in there persay you need to push toggle in to adjust fuel, hmmm. anyone?

 

Do you think it'll pay for itself in fuel savings?

 

Cause I think they are junk, nothing is a substitute for a good EMS.

 

Ok lets be a little realistic here. AT THE ANGLE THE PICTURE WAS TAKEN, it does partially block 3 guages.

1. An inaccurate temp gauge.
2. An inaccurate tachometer. It's still only blocking below 1k rpms and past 8k, not half. ;-)
3. 0-20 on the speedometer.

But since I'm not 4' 2", I can clearly read all my gauges.

So, the moral of the story, if your short, get a phone book or mount it somewhere else. :-)

 

x2?

 

all i did was pop up my ashtray and it fit right in ... no need to cut or ruin anything ... it fits snug too ...
