Apexi Power FC Datalogit...

[milloman]

Hi All,
 
Anyone that has used one or knows about them, is there a datalogit that\'s specific to the RX7 FD3s, or can you do the same things with a \'universal\' datalogit (Type X apparently) for all cars?
 
Reason i ask is because i want one, and this one here will go for chips (unless one of you bid for it because i\'m posting the link, lol) and i\'ll get it if it serves the right purpose! (Ps. i have Apexi PFC already installed with one map on it)

Thoughts on this would be great!
 
Cheers all!

The universal one works fine with our PFC , and is the model you would get if you bought new from Datalogit themselves

[milloman]

Excellent thanks a lot, i know i\'m a newbie and not intro\'d myself yet but that\'ll come once i\'ve actually got the car! Cheers BlitzBoy!

ahh Have you mapped cars before and have a wideband?, its only usefull if you are planning to map yourself, if not and are only using it to monitor then the commander with the Apexi Power FC is all you need

[milloman]

basically (read up quite a bit on it, rx7club.com - Wargasm has an AMAZING guide on it) i\'ve got PFC with Greddy Profec B Spec II, i\'m going to look at getting a wideband that i can plug into the datalogit, so alongside the PFC i can learn how to create myself a second map for much lower, more every day useable power.
 
This is all just prep work at the mo, once i\'ve got it and on the road i\'ll join up as a full member and intro myself! cheers!

[milloman]

PS (sorry for multi-posting, genuine mistsake!) can you recommend a good wideband that\'ll do the job and not cost a million squids?
 
Cheers,

[BlitzBoy]

Innovate is my Wideband of choice very good.
What spec car you going after, Twins or modified single turbo?

[milloman]

It\'s already got ST setup done by PowerGains... more info to follow on it when i get it.
 
Where can i get this innovate one from? don\'t worry too much i\'ll search the interweb this afternoon if you don\'t get back to me that\'s fine, you\'ve already answered the Q and been very helpful - very much appreciated!

[BlitzBoy]

Apex-performance they are a 200sx specialist but sell all the Innovate wideband stuff, go for the LM-1 model

[milloman]

excellent i\'ll give it a search - cheers! Look forward to meeting you all at meets/events this year.

If you are getting the car from Powergains I would imagine it would have a "Jaydee" map on the ECU in which case all you would need is to lower the boost for lower power and no need to map it yourself and save yourself some money from buying a Wideband and datalogit.
His maps are awesome I would find out from Kerim who mapped the car.

[milloman]

Yeah very good point actually... just use the Greddy to adjust it. so it\'s ok to leave the fueling as it is it it? just lower the boost?

[BlitzBoy]

yes you are correct just lower the boost,
If Jaydee has mapped the car he would have mapped all the different boost level fuel cells. So when you lower the boost the Apexi will sense the boost level and use the correct fuel cell for that boost versus rpm therefore inject the correct fuel.

[milloman]

Excellent, i\'ll whack an email to powergains now and check to see if they know who mapped it, then we could be onto a winner and you my friend have saved me a few hundred bob!

[BlitzBoy]

no worries my friend hope to see the car soon, Powergains creations tend to be verrrrry nice cars
