Hi i was wondering whether anyone can help?
I have a 92 tt, she\'s ported and had quite a few mods.
She starts up with a bit off fuss usually. The problem is i have just bought an apexi power fc and fitted it properly, but now my car fires up and cuts out straight away, the revs don\'t even get to 1k before she cuts out. Does anyone know the reason for this?
cheers
She\'s on the right track 295rwhp @ 0.7bar, still lots to come!

Mr J.T

who installed the PFC?
does the PFC come on ok on ignition?
make sure you havent blow a fuse (ie fuel relay)

I installed it yesterday, i follewed the apexi instructions, ie diconnecting the battery etc. The hand controller just has the apexi logo on it and it doesn\'t change when the car cranks or fires. I only bought it the other day from someone on here and it was working on their car.

The power fc controller shoudl display more than just the logo when the ignition is turned on. When you turno it on, it kinda \'boots up\' - while doing so, displays the logo. Then the menu displays, or whatever display you had up last time. Sounds like it\'s knackered.

I hope it isn\'t ive only just bought it, my car will not start now even with the standard ecu in, any ideas?
