It's not a hack. It's not anything special, people just want to sound all fancy by saying that they're using the AFC "hack" oooooooooh.

Anyway, you put on large injectors and then turn your AFC way down to control the fueling. Ding, you're done. You have "hacked" your engine. You are a 1337 h4x0r to the m4x0r.


With those injectors I belive you'll want to turn fuel down ~40%

thanks for the advice. i was certain it was something "special" with the way people talk about it. anyways...i suppose i'm already "hacking" it cause my fuel is turned like -15 at idle.
