I will also be installing my SAFC II in the next few weeks. I have had it for a couple of months......not time. I want to get this thing on line to see how I am running. I also plan on installing on the ODB II sensor by AEM.....I feel that I am paranoid sometimes....byt better safe than sorry!!

Hassle?...so I guess any car with a start button is a hassle?

I'd like to define hassle not with a mere extra touch of a button. Hassle would be if you put your key in the socket, enter a 5 digit code, press your thumb fingerprint on the console in order to start a car. THAT'S HASSLE FOR YOU...possibly unless your driving a batmobile

just like the man said...it's a simple cool mod. It's not a hassle...installing it is a hassle

I have an auto...since you've already accomplished this task I am assuming you may be able to answer my question because I CANT
Actually, Im not sure. You can probably disconnect the factory wire to the starter to prevent the key from cranking. The engine start is a totally separate installation. Does not effect any of the factory abilities. I kept the key start just in case one day the button fails...

Exactly. Right now, I just richen some low end ranges based on some other peoples dyno graphs. I will not be leaning anything out before dynoing my own car with the A/F sensor.

Well, not really. I have a 6 speed, so its much easier for me to start the car with the engine start button...because I dont have to step on the clutch!! And I rather "press" than "twist" if you know what I mean
