if you have 1600 secondaries and a properly installed and TUNED SAFC2 you should be able to get pretty high in the boost already, where is your cutout hitting now? if you havent tuned the SAFC 2 and injectors yet, do that first, cuz your boost cut should rise significantly. The problem you may run into is ignition timing though, as you tell the car the boost is lower via the SAFC it may tend to run too much timing at a given boost/rpm...If your now hitting fuel cut at 15 psi which is what i gather, you've reached the safe limit anyways, and you'd have to at a minimum get bigger primaries to go any further, the stock ecu can be tricked into not fuel cutting, but you need much more injector to do it safely, otherwise you need a physically modified ecu. Also, J Spec twins were never ball bearing, the newer 280ps models used abraidable seals, which basically means that the turbos wear into the housings on initial startup causing them to run "tighter" and make more efficient boost...

Let's make it simple for you since you seem to have basic comprehension problems -- you need a stand-alone to run that setup with any reliability at all. A lot of people on this board have been there and done that -- and lost motors and turbos doing it. They've already learned the painful lessons so you don't have to. If you want to ignore that, then you deserve what you get, which will be a blown motor.

Well, if that's true, it would seem that you would know how to set it up then. I know of almost no one running the S-AFC on an FD, and there's many good reasons what that is.

Good luck. When you blow this motor, please don't start spouting off how rotaries are unreliable.

so you have searched for 3 days and found nothing on this huh?? there is a reason for that, no one is foolish enough to attempt what you are trying to do because its just plain stupid. the jspec twins are not ball bearing, comprende??

like rynberg said, when you blow the motor dont talk down the rotary because you abused it. oh and when it does pop dont come on the forum asking why it blew. you need to stop insisting that this is an ideal setup and face the hard facts. also stop basically telling all of us that we dont know what we are talking about.

Guys correct me if I'm wrong but this is horse ****, correct? About the safc I was actually reading a thread in the kills section a few days back where someone uses this and swears by it. Stock ECU. Might want to take a look in there. Now that I think about it the thread was something like "mustang kills FD then braggs" or something similar. The 7 was claiming 370 hp with stock ecu but most thought that estimate was pretty high.

First: 99 spec turbos are NOT ball bearing.

Second: just get a PFC or any other aftermarket ECU.

End of story.
