does this work for the neo as well?

REMEMBER that the picture that G-money provides is a picture of the ECU when looking into the pins.

When installing this, do not flip the harness around or you may get confused.

what does it mean to connect the brown wire to the ecu side

both black and brown need to be soldered into the same wire just brown need to be closer to the ecu like in the picture and brown needs to be on the other side away from it

yeah that will do it they need to be separate from eachother and make sure everything is soldered mine wouldnt even cut on with quickconnectors so i had to go back and solder it all but it works like a champ now

oh well go back and resolder everything and make sure u have a damn good connections

what would one be missing for the neo? my friend ordered his..

im still confused on the brown/black wire deal. Just dont need to send my car into limp mode when i get it all hooked up.

hook them together, i have no idea wtf apexi was doing when writing this.

thanks gurov.

got a qestion do have to have a wide band o2 to install the safc 2 into the car and how do you set every thng back to stock setting so i can tune it later

no where, they are not used for our cars.

Is there an actual factory plug for the white and yellow wire? Or is it you just conect the white and yellow wire in the wire coming from pin 51.  So it would be cut the wire in pin 51, conect the yellow wire to the ecu side and the white to the harness side of the wire you cut??

you just cut the wire and solder yellow on ecu side and white on the other side, i think the safc is supposed to come with extra plugs that you can put on the cut wire but my safc didn't come with jack shit

Sorry Tweek...If I could have found a New SAFC 2 I would have. I wasn't aware anything was missing.

Yes you need a wideband for sure and yes a SAFC is for tuning. If you have no idea your better off reading up alot in the electronics section. To tune yourself you will need a SAFC, wideband, and datalogger of some sort.

What is the basic configuration setup for the safc once installed
settings wise
cylinders hi low throttle point
and any other default setting i woudl need to know about
am i making any sense in asking this question?

Most of the settings are car/setup specific. Here is what I can give you:

4 cylander with the throttle arrow going up and to the right.
Hotwire: 18-18 - 1-1

The throttle points (ne points) and the air signal modification (+-X%) you will have to tune. Do this on a dyno or with a wideband. Don't do this with a butt dyno if you like your piston rings and rods.

There is an asston of information already in threads on the board, so do some searching and read read read read read read read.

Wiring it takes an hour or two, setup will take you 10 minutes, so don't worry about it. If your boosted, look up the boost SAFC hack post gurov made. That's what I run and I highly recommend it. Highly. You can keep one tune map and simply change the throttle % (which is actually boost psi) to change partial boost. So, on a drag track I might have 39% lo throttle and 42% hi throttle, but on the street, I turn it down to 39% lo / %47 high which doesn't let the car run lean at partial boost when you back off the throttle (lost traction in 3rd again damn it! lol)

I am gonna try and use pin 103 for my RPM window switch anyone know the voltage it puts out?

just to let you know, you can get a tach signal from the red wire at the ignition coil, its negative polarity

does ne one no the color of the wires comming from the ecu for this install? cuz i got the rest i just dont wanna miss and mess something up

Look at the wiring diagram in the first post, that tells you the color/pin #.

just curious to install this do i hook everything up through the ecu harness connected to the fire wall or do i work from behind the glove box?
