SAFC on an NA - What AFRs?
Well, I have recently purchased and begun installing an SAFC (blue screen 4 button kind).
I have the following: 1986 GXL 12,000 miles on a Rebuild Rebuild done with FD housings and a mild street port. CAI RB downpipe and presilencer Dynomax catback Stock fuel pump Stock injectors Stock ECU Due to the S4's narrow range TPS I will be hooking the SAFC up to the NA boost sensor in an effort to gain full throttle range as far as the SAFC is concerned. Once the unit is all wired in, I'll be heading to the local Dyno shop to have it properly tuned using a wideband O2 sensor. Here's the probelm - the tuners at the shop are not too familiar with rotaries - and are not familiar with N/A rotaries at all! The guys there are great tuners of regular engines - but not so much mine. They said that they will tune the car to what ever specs I desire, but they don't have enough experience with rotaries to offer suggestions. So my question is: What AFRs should I be tuning to? I'm not looking for the optimum power that an N/A can put out (this is a daily summer driven car after all) - but rather a safe setup that will gain some power and especially smoothness in the upper rev range. Everytime I do a search I come up with either numbers for Turbo cars - or percentages that the car was leaned out. If someone could provide me with some Air Fuel Ratios that I could have them tune to - that would be a huge help! Thanks! Nick |
AFAIK, there's really no difference... all cars want the same air/fuel ratio... just if you want to be safe bump it up on the 'rich' side a little more.

I would tell you to use a wideband O2 sensor and dyno to tune it for more performance and with the cyno you can actualy see the diffrence on paper
