It's gonna be hard. I had to spend a couple weeks searching just to hook up my turbo timer.
I know that you will need to figure out what each wire hooks up to. Then you'll need FSM or FSM page scans to figure out where exactly to splice. After that, it is pretty easy. The ecu is numbered on the FSM, and there are only a couple wires on the MAF to deal with. Just take your time and get as many tips and scans as you can. I haven't installed an AFC yet, but when I do, there will be a detailed write-up on my site... cuz I know it will be a pain in the ass. -Jeff

Call apexi's U.S. headquarters or customer service. They can probably get you a scan, or point you in the right direction. They are one of the top aftermarket companies, and customer service is one of the ways they got there. Also, a fsm will help like stated above.

Hey Jeff and all you KA-ters, what made you decide to go with the SAFC over JWT? Its the route Im planning on taking too but I just wanted to know your reasoning.

Amen to money, 240racer. JWT is cool and all, but costs $100 every time you change something. And IMO, the only other really good thing JWT does is adjust timing. I will go JWT, but after I run 6.5psi and am ready to upgrade again.

I would run both the JWT ECU and the SAFC. Thats what I run on my Z32TT. The JWT ECU will help with timing and extended fuel maps. The SAFC is for fine tuning your fuel.

i am running both the jwt ecu and apexi s-afc. it is a must for high boost. or your other alternative is a standalone: Haltec, Motec, Accel DFI, etc. for low boost, you can get away with an s-afc but it only goes so far. plus you need to know what you are doin. It is not like the JWT in which you can just plug it in and go boosting.
