Where can you get a powerfc w/ commander, not too expensive? If anyone wants to share his dealer please pm me :D

£284.94 for Pip to tune mine last Tuesday, nearly dropped through floor :eek:

Time to learn how to do it myself i think...
Are there any books on this?

Anyone out there running a Haltech or Microtech ? A mate of mine is going to Oz for 5 weeks over Xmas and he knows their headquarters. Plan was to buy one and map it myself on my laptop, sounds dangerous enough. I know I should search the forum and I will if no-one comes back to me, but I haven\'t had the time, what with that damn Topshift site addiction...... !

I dont think there are any books as such.  Best bet is to search the US forums for tips i think...

I guess it wont make much difference to put a powerFC on a (nearly) stock engine, will it? I\'d like to have it though.. All those little tweaking stuff.. :D :D

Mine\'s nearly stock, the PFC makes a vast difference.  Car is quicker, smoother, more economical, + everything\'s in place, ready for the upgrades;)

So whats the sequence of events i have to perform once ive plugged it in ? I\'ve got a good idea what to do and phil explained what he did on monday night, but my memory is not very good and need to just check ! I\'m hopefully going to put it in on sunday, was going to be saturday, but hopefully going to watch the track day !

plug it in and start her up, then follow the idle set up

Leave car running for 10 mins without touching anything
After 10 mins switch the heated rear screen on and leave that for 10 mins, then finally put the A/C on full blask for the last 10 mins. JOB DONE!!!

Mine ran miles better after fitting it, no more popping and  farting and idle much smoother.

Obviously didn\'t get long to test it due to the animal magnatism between lamp post and car :confused:

By the way, my baby has just been loaded onto a trailer and gone....will i ever see her again?????

Who knows :(

don\'t want to sell the power fc do you ?

wiggy

Wondered how long it would be before someone asked...

not 100% sure yet but the chances are yes it will be for sale soon.

To make it fair though I am probably going to stick it all on eBay, unless I get good offers on the stuff I have

I need to wait for the insurance to get back to me before I start offering things though, I have a list of all the gear I have going if the cars a gonna,

You dont fancy giving me 1st dibs on the apexi Commander do you??

shaunwil

Cheers, if the weathers stoggie on sat will do it then, if not i\'ll cya at the track ! So it will be sunday. I just wanted to check that nothing was left off the list ! Do i need to be progressive with the car for the first so many miles so it can learn the engine fueling curve, or does it do that when i plugged it in ???

What time are you guys meeting up at Oulton Park (or however you spell it). Will come down if its nice ! Even just to see you guys thrashing round the track !

Cheers
