Question question: APEXi S-AFC

With the crawford plenum and the Injen CAI, i feel my car running a little lean along with a rougher idle. Its not to bad and doesnt bother me at all but, if i were to install a Apex S-AFC and dyno-tuned it, could this help to correct the lean condition?

good question... With the mods I have expected to be at my door any day, I should be running quite lean also and should look into this as an option...

Hopefully someone can help us out and let us know cause i want to mount the S-AFC where my navigation should have been, with one of the carbon fiber plates, but dont want to do it for no purpose.

Just how does one "feel" your car is running lean? Plug readings? A/F measurement? I think it is all in your head.

Regardless if i can, or can not "feel" it running lean, after i have had plug readings, and a A/F measurement, which would be proof that it is running lean; can i then use a APEXi S-AFC to correct this problem?


but i still think i can "feel" it running lean,

I have the super afc if u dont plan on doing any other mods than yes have it dyno tuned now but if u plan on adding more things like headers exhaust or nitrous you have to have it re tuned to the performance upgrades and yes can have a track setting and a everyday driving setting. my 2 settings are gonna be for on the bottle and all motor to maximuze my horse power. i should have some dyno results in about a month or so.
