Default Kinteix v+ plenum installed

Just finished installing Kinetix v+ plenum. I definitely noticed an immediate engine growl from the plenum due to more air going in. WOT for about half a mile and defintely noticed a difference, but not much. I have Apex S-AFC set at -8 percent. I know that with the plenum the engine tends to lean out a bit. Where should i set my SAFC at to run at an optimum with the plenum? Thanks..

You need a wide band O2 meter to tell you what setting are best. That and some time on the dyno

Just adjusted the AFC to -3 all across the board. It actually ran so much better. Much better pull.

No, i don't think it eats more gas s long as i adjust the ratio correctly. Since its running a bit leaner than before, i had to richen bit. Interested in getting rid of your Nismo cold air v2?

You could just get CIPHER and monitor the Widebands (05-06) with data-logging. From what I've done with CIPHER thus far it appears to be a much more useful tuning tool than stand-alone widebands.

Only 2004.5+ Nissans come w/ WB, so keep that in mind.
03 and early 04 are out of luck
