Arrow SAFC2 Initial Setup??? (Update: Having Problems)

sup. i just installed my safc2 a little while ago and i was wondering about the initial setup. for anyone that has installed this, what did you put in for sensor type, warning mode, display scale, etc? do i need to change any of these values or leave them they way they are?

allmotor can only hope to improve
lol i just got my safc installed too by knockturnal. For the display i just made it darker at night, day, dim because i am a ricer, and for everything else besides the monitor changes, i wouldnt touch it until i got on a dyno. Me and my friend were messing with it and i think we leaned it out too much, so i would wait and just get it dyno tuned.

ARRRRRRGGGGGHAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!


ok. so i installed my safc and ran initial setup. everything seems to be running fine except that the real time RPMs showing on the safc2 screen dont match up with the ones that are on my tach. what could be wrong? it says its idling at around 500 when it really idles around 700 or 800.

Check the car select screen...it should say 4 cyl and throttle position should be in the NE position!

I set-up allmotor's with 1 in 1 out...if it is wrong I need to know also...his RPM's were a little off but imo more accurate on the SAFC!!

i called apex about what to set it at, so they told meeh all honda is pressure 6 in 6 out. and for your rpm, there is be a selection of what kind of motor you have and u should set it at 4 cylinder since thats what we have.

ill try that and we'll see what happens. my RPMs arent just a little off, theyre way off. sometimes they can be a whole 1k off.
