ECU TUning

I am in the process of installing a JPP Header System W/Y-Pipe, KMD Tuning Custom 2.5" catless piping, Apexi WS Cat Back System & an Injen SRI. Now my question is, which company(s) make Stand-Alone/Piggy Back ECU for Gen 1.5 Solara V6? (Am I just limited to the Apexi S-AFC II, etc.?)

Another thing, who tunes Solaras here in the NY/NJ/PA area?

With all that work you may want to consider a CPE intake with a tunable box that lets you change your MAF settings and A/F curves.

u can use either the safc 2 or the afc neo. u can also get a more in depth setup using the SS FTC; URD I believe still sells them, however, the trick with this is to be able to find a shop that knows what they're doing with this system.

True...But I don't want to spring another $400+ for an intake even if I have to sell the Injen SRI...

just stick with what you have and get an safc2 and get it tuned and you will be in great shape!

Anyone here knows a good ECU Tuner in NJ/NY/PA area?

When doing this modification I was also thinking of upgrading my fuel system...Walbro Fuel Pump, High Flowing Fuel Rails, High Flowing Injectors, Adjustable Fuel Pressure Regulator, etc...

^^It is beneficial for N/A applications, but I believe it will pose some issues if you are boosted.

I would like to get boosted but if I ever decide to buy a TRD Supercharger I want the whole package...I don't like to hunt for parts here & there...No one has ever done an ITB here on their Solara have they?

Greg had it done to his beastly lara and had nothing but good things to say about it.

So far no one has done ITB on the solara.

guess i got mixed up with something else, thx for the clarification

by **M_ABILLONES** » Wed Mar 19, 2008 8:43 pm

For The Apexi S-AFC II or the AFC-NEO, does it come with a wiring harness specifically made for the Gen 1.5 Solara V6 or this is a Universal set up?

One more thing, does the Apexi comes with a "Knock" feature?
