Okay... So you've seen this chart, right?

http://www.graphics.cornell.edu/~v/ecupins/

You want to cut the MAF sensor signal wire: B48.9.

You have a hot wire 0-5v sensor, so set both dip switches off.

If you're running an aftermarket atmospheric blowoff valve, then you could try EIDS.

Don't you also need to tap the tachometer signal?

Unless the SAFR is designed to work that way, it's probably not gonna work right. I don't know what exactly you mean by sticking it rear close to the first piston spark, but if it's anywhere on the high voltage side of the circuit you could risk damaging the SAFR. It's probably meant for the low-voltage side, but even then each wire only gets half the pulses.

I would first try connecting it to pin 16 of ECU connector B56: that's the wire the ECU uses to drive the tachometer in the dash.

It's mounted behind the driver side dash. Remove the trim panel above the driver's knees (it's held in place by a bunch of Phillips-head screws) and then you'll see it behind a gray metal brace, with four yellow harness connectors on the right-hand side of it.
