Anyone install a SAFC on a GS430? I've seen previous posts on safc and gs3/gs4. Was wondering if the wire schematic T10-a will work on a GS430.
TIA.

 

i dont know how to install but i sug you get it done at the shop.i need to get one and most shops charge 250 for the install. that includes the dyno tunning of your car. you want to get it dyno no matter what but that is my 2 cents

 

This came off my IS300. Installation of the SAFC isn't that hard. All I need to know is which wiring schematic to use for the GS430. I will dyno tune the car after intake and exhaust.

 

Have you contacted Apex-i? They may have the wiring scheme you need...I know they did for the manual IS 300 for me

 

I posted the wiring chematic you need for the GS400. SHoudl be same for GS430.

 

I finally took a look at my ecu. The T-10a diagram from Apex-i's manual doesn't match the layout of the Gs430 ecu.

 

The ecu wiring for the GS400 is definitely differnt form the 430. That is apparent looking a SRT's wire diagram for the GS400 & 430.

Do you have the S-FAC1 or 2? I checked to see if anyone put one on a 430 a few months ago and no luck. The company was of no help when I called them.
From what I've been able to figure out, the T11-b diagram with sensor type HW-25 should work for the 430.
Are you going to put the S-AFC on w/ your SRT intake??

 

I bought the SRT intake used. When I installed it, all sorts of lights came on. My friend had the same ecu. I tried his and it was fine. I've sent the piggy back ecu back to SRT and still waiting. I was just checking to see if anyone installed a SAFC 1 on a GS430. If there is something wrong with the piggy back ecu, I might install the SAFC instead. I am thinking of getting Apexi WS II exhaust. Would it be better if I use the SAFC and have it dyno tuned? thanks.

 

The SRT ECU does the samething as the S-AFC. But I think if you tune it right w/ the S-AFC you'll actually fine tune it for your particular car ( exact car internals and alttitude) Just my opinion.
Did you ever find out what was wrong w/ the SRT ECU. My guess is that it was shorted out or something.
Do you still need that GS 430 wire schematic for the S-AFC?

 

Mo from SRT changed 2 chips on it. But when I installed back on the car. It still did the same thing. I've tried it on my friends car and still did the same. So I just sent it back to Mo and have him take a look again. If it comes back the same, I might have to go with the S-AFC route.
I've downloaded the wire schematic for S-AFC II from Apex-i's website.
Thanks for the help

Whats the update on your SRT ECU ? Did they get it fixed for the 3rd. try. Keep me posted if you decide to do the S-AFC with the SRT intake . I don't think it's been done on the GS400/430 . Well I have not read about it.
Do you have the S-AFC 1 or 2?

 

I'll reply for Leeshdw as he's in china for a month. Last conversation I had with him, is that Mo recieved the ECU and has not had time to look at it yet. Now he may have since then as I won't find out until Leeshdw returns in november.

What ever ever happened to your SRT ECU?.Did you end up going with the S-AFC and the intake??

 

Mo from SRT sent me a new ECU. Plugged it in and everything was fine..

 

Are you going to hookup the S-AFC up w/ it also,? I was thinking that it should work , I'm not sure if there would be much of a benefit tuning it past the SRT's ECU. It would be nice even if to use it to just monitor some engine functions. I've been toying w/ the idea..
