Hi guys i have an SAFC already tuned in my manual v8, and am getting a blitz ecu to replace my ecu.

Now just before i go and spend $150 an hour on a dyno, do i have to re-tune my SAFC when i swap my stock ecu for the blitz ECU?

Cheers

Won't the blitz make the SAFC redundant? If I understand correctly it is used to save you the cost of a new ECU that can change the fuel ratios. I am interested to know if you wanted to sell your SAFC and is it a series I or a II?

you can set all the parameters to zero but before you do write them all down or use the zero setting as your 2nd map. then it will still work to show you all your parameters of rpm etc like a gauge but run the blitz ecu without adjustment then if there is any finetuning you want to do you can adjust it with the safc

Well i have no idea how to use the safc, it came with the car so i'd say it will have to be tuned by the dyno guys unless it's easy? So is there any benefit of having the two? or just keep the one?

And please guys, real answers not ones hinting me to sell it or give you safc or blitz.

Thanks heaps

Safc is just to piggy back the stock ecu to give you control over fuel air ratio. If you are ditching the stock ecu the safc is out of business. After market ecus can do air fuel mixture as well as many other features.

The Blitz won't do that though. It basically is a stock ECU with more aggressive fuel maps (that is not adjustable), raises the rev limit and removes fuel and speed cuts.

The SAFC will be handy for the Blitz IF OP is running very rich, which I suspect he will be.

You don't NEED the SAFC, but it would help. But you will need dyno time of course.
