Good to hear, best bang for your buck.
Just about to hit a year with my car in its current shape and the only real issue I may need to address soon is that I would like to turn up the boost a bit since my turbo is so big... Ill need a new trans.
Contemplating sending a decent core to BL to have it built. Unless I could source all the stuff they do and do it myself.

btw the safc wont make 700.. on a ge atleast those numbers are from a 2jzgte that runs 550cc stock injectors.. so 880 at 80% if your lucky. rule of thumb for a safc is 2x the stock injector size.. so 650cc is your max on that. and if you run 80% your looking at 520whp MAX. the safc is old school technology. it works but it runs like **** (can tune by 100rpms or less). i suggest going mapecu if your trying to save some money before going full standalone. 347 is good if your on stock injectors.. (however your maxing them out and you will more then likley detonate that motor if your actually running that much power through them) but that motor is capable of alot more, especially if you put a GTE head on it.

LOL, congratulations you can tune a safc. you understand what an up and down arrow mean. what other cars have you "tuned" and on what?
your still playing with fire with anything over 80%.
Also there is a difference between put together and built.

I know what it is, considering Im a professional mechanic and have been for well over a decade, specializing in building and tuning cars. My dyno video posted was done at my shop with me in the driver seat.
It is my daily, ive driven for well over a year with zero issues related to boost. I even changed my plugs about a week ago and noticed that they looked really good, no sign of detonation or lean issues. I have a wideband and i have a knock signal.
Not to mention, if i ever get around to it, Im swapping out the MAF for a map. Im just busy with customer builds and school.

In total, somewhere around 50 or 60 hours, but that was with me doing everything a couple times, fitting everything precise and running everything so it didnt look hacked together or slapped on. I didnt want to have to modify any of the hard parts whatsoever so I took the extra time to make sure everything went in as I got it.
It came out to my satisfaction and still runs like a champ after a year, 22k miles or so. i forget howmuch I drove it this weekend.
