I am not going to turn theboostupand tune itmyself. I am taking it back to the same speed shop that got it running right. They hook it up to a wideband on their dyno there.

your gonna save alot more money in the long run if you buy a wideband rather than pay them to do it. Cuz if you do any other mods youll need to tune it again. And tuning with an SAFC is childs play

Well I dont really want to put a bunch of money in the car. I was just going to save two settings in the AFC so that I can just drive around on 9 psi and then plug the boost controller in for whatever it is set at for at the track. I have looked into the widebands before and think I am going to buy one of them but I just figured since it didnt cost anymore where I take it to have them tune it in when it is on the dyno already I would just let them do it all and use their wideband. What do you think I need to replace the SAFC II with?

oh no i didnt mean that you should get rid of it, i was just saying you could easily do it yourself. Obviously it would be as good as a dyno tune but youd save money. I dont know how much you pay to have it dynod

what would be a safe boost to set it at? I would like to have it on just the wastegate which is set at 9 psi and then maybe 15psi or so when I plug the boost controller in.
