Haha, I thought you were just talking about the original. But yeah, you were right.Haha, you did all this talking up of your chips/tuning up and youir not even the one doing it, bwahaha. Bring it on little man, bring it on.
How about YOU burn me a chip. Your just an internet NOOB who reads the internet then all of the sudden thinks he knowsd everything. You flat out said you have no experience w/ an AFC but yet you bash it, how's this work? Continue w/ your ways of doing it, thats fine but you will always be 2 steps behind. You can run a new AFC and have 200 rpm incrments of adjustability as well as store 2 different maps.

Oh nick, you really know how to gain yourself some business don't you? I never claimed to use and AFC, I have always used burned chips, and I have NEVER had a problem running one. I have never blown motors (can you say that???) If when you sayed that "Im not the one even doing it, bwa-ha-hah-ha" you mean that I don't create and burn my own maps??? Then yeah. I don't. There are people out there who are far better tuners with better equipment than me...I leave it up to the pro's. Furthermore, I never bashed an AFC, I came straight out and said I have no experience with it, can claimed everything I stated was strictly "what I heard". I would love to burn you a chip, but I don't have the means to do it. If you want to front the cash moneybags, I'll get you a chip.
It sounds like you just really want to bitch and prove you are right. I use chips, they work perfect for me, and right now I have a damn perfect tune on my car without standalone or AFC, and I'm willing to bet I spent less. I'm not sayinr your way is wrong, I'm just saying MY WAY WORKS. Quit arguing on the internet trying to make yourself seem like your the god damn best, don't you have a shop to run or something?

I spent 3 hours on the dyno with Hondata and my tune wasn't perfect when I was done with my car. It ran hard but as soon as it got to the track the added load was making it load up on top. I didn't have time to make those changes at the track.
I have a full xtronics emulator/burner setup so you get me a .bin file for Nick's hatch and I'll donate the eeprom and the time to burn it.

So basically we're back to the point of buring a chip based off a setup not based off logs/A/F ratios. Because if your not the one creating the maps or buring the chips who is? If your just telling someone your setup and their burning a chip of that there is no way its a perfect tune. Tuning a chip is damn near basically the same as tuning a full standalone just the fgact you dont have any adjustabilityonce the chip is burnt. Where you not the one who said in the last thread a AFC is not the correct or right way to accomodate for larger injectors? If you have no experience w/ using an AFC you shouldn't be commenting that its not the right way to do things. It is by far the easiest way and you have on the fly adjustability for weather changes, altitude, race gas, etc..

I am NOT the type of person to claim that what I do is THE right way. However, chipped ECU's have always worked for me. Maybe AFC's have always worked for you...but the vast majority of people I talk to suggest staying away from AFC's.
Typically, what I do is have a chip burned based on my setup. I then take this base map and have it tuned of A/F ratio. I do this because my setup is a little beyond mild. For the typical streetcar with bolt-on's I don't find it absolutely essential...of course you will gain some power, but its a trade in with the $ factor. I don't even know what the hell we are talking about, cause it sounds like you agree with what I do is right, and I'm definitely not saying your way is wrong. Different strokes for different folks. Just for shits it cost me app. $300 for a near perfect tune...what does it cost to go the AFC route. I'm curious, like I said, I have little-to-no experience with the AFC.

Are you even running a boosted setup? On a NA application this isn't even worth it for a car w/ bolt on's. You can pick up brand new AFC2's for $300, less if you go for an old AFC. @ this rate you have the on the fly adjustability. We have dyno'd many vehicles w/ these chips burnt based off the setup, they are never even close. What the point of having that chip burnt when your gonna go back in there and redo it anyways. How would you even know where to start if you were going to burn me a chip for my setup w/o having the vehicle on a wideband.

Most people dont do that though they order these chips offline that are burnt based off a setup and they are never close the A/F maps are junk and they make no power. For simplicity, i can take a car put a AFC on it, slap the wideband on, go out for a half hour and be done w/ a perfectly tuned car now the persaon doesn't have to worry about finding a dyno, finding someone to adjust their chip, and finding someone to reburn the chip.

Since Dyno tuning is usually around $100 an hour, I like to get it as close as I can before I bring it in. I run a nitroused ls/vtec right now, but it is soon to be supercharged around 7lbs. If you can promise me a near perfect tune on your wideband with and AFC for a descent price, you've got yourself a new customer. I haven't used an AFC before, but if it really is that easy I'll bite on it.

The reason I'm going to supercharge is I'm running about 10.4:1 compressions plus a 100shot now. I'm gonna drop the shot to 75, and I don't want to change the bottom end setup...the most boost I will probably run is 7lbs or so, and for that amount of boost a JR is cheaper. Do you have a rom burner Nick, or editor of any sort (Hondata, AEM)?

I'm also quite interested in this question. BTW sean we can do datalogging if you ever need to do that.Do you have a Wide Band Sean?
I thought about buying one with my brother, I'm actually looking into it now. But if SLS isn't too expensive I might just end up using theirs.
