you can probably run that alittle over 20psi i would suspect. Maybe to like 22-23. With hp its really hard to tell because every car is different. But you really need to use the SAFC if you really want to get some good gains. Is it already instaled and you just dont know how to use it or is it out?

Don't you need a wideband also. Not just the SAFC by itself?

20psi is good on pump. providing the car is running nice id say 260-280whp range but the 16g's shine when u feed em race gas

Dont you need a wideband also with the SAFC? If you just had a SAFC, fuel system upgrades, and supporting mods with a 16G, can you run 20-22 psi? I thought you would need a wideband at least to help tune it, especially after 17psi.

wideband is optimal for tuning for sure, especially for getting all the hp you can safely, but logging timing curve and knock(for 1gs) also works
