Maft-Pro will do EVERYTHING you need.

Get an adjustable fuel pressure regulator, Walbro fuel pump, and 550s - you should be good to go from there. :)

You are joking right?

Edit: They all are piggy backs meaning they work along with the ECU of your car

To me personally the SAFC, 550's and Lex AFM setup is the least complicated to setup and maintain. That setup has been proven to be effective all the way up to the 600rwhp area. But people consider it to be stone age ..... but it still works.

He is a noob and is asking a viable question...why would it be a joke. When you first came here you didnt know all of this either. Personally I would say running over 400RWHP you will need to invest in a full standalone. I have a friend that detonated under the maft pro, and will only think that over 2x the stock power out put in RWHP should be managed by a standalone to be optimum. Can it work with the various intruments...yes if tuned conservatively it can. Now I know that the maft pro can run up to 600rwhp if needed, but the factory ECU is still a wild card in the equation. A hiccup can happen anytime with this set up. Drjonze said that he wouldnt trade his AEM to run the maft pro. This is just another inexpensive patch, and in the long run a standalone is best! If you are running the emanage you dont need a SAFC......the emanage prgams way better than that thing hands down. It has a 250 point air and fuel map, which alone sets it above the AFC. Also if you have the profec and the emanage then you only need a USB cable for them to communicate, and you can tune in real time via the E01 screen. As you make adjustments the engine runs rich or lean in real time. Just get a wideband to assist in mild street tuning then off to a dyno you go. I made 475RWHP and 450ft lbs of torque with the emanage Vpc setup; However old wires and tps issues kept me from advancing further. I ended up buying a Wolf v500 to go to the next level. Soon I will have good results.
