Hi
Nice and sunny day so cleaned the 7 and went for a blast. Switched to high boost inlet temps were around 34deg. Stopped and had a cheeky sella and had a mess with my apexi, went to settings and onoto the boost settings. My high boost is set at 1 bar on the boost controller but on the apexi screen said 1.2 bar does this mean that its been mapped to 1.2 bar? and i can actually set my boost controller for a high boost of 1.2 then.:3gears-lh
What do you all think?

Regards
Mark

When you say it said 1.2bar you mean on settings or on the display screen ??

If its the display screen you might have had a spike for it to hit 1.2 when you were running 1.0, if its the settings then the Apexi has been set up for 1.2bar.

Hope that helps, are you also runnnig Twins or single buddy as not sure but you dont wanna run standard twins at 1.2bar if you want them to last a while, standard is 0.85bar. :wave

In a word, no - assuming you are in settings. If you are in monitor, then thats peak - which means either the apexi is reading over, or you need to play with your boost controller a bit.

On the settings screen it says 1.2 bar. I\'m running a single with supporting mods, so it would be ok to turn the boost up then?

^^^^^^^^^^

All that means is that PFC wont fuel cut until 1.2 bar. It has no bearing on whats in the fuel or ignition maps.

Won\'t risk turning the boost up then
