APexi AVCR Boost Controller

[Grizzly]

Your about Right, Get a Power Fc which will tell you your Injector Duty and you can run basicly as much boost as you want as long as the duty does not go over 85%. To get you Duty down so you can run more boost you need to fit a Pump, Injectors, Intercooler etc.

I would go see a proper Tuner WGT,REWorks etc and get pro advice becouse if the car is not 100% when the boost is turned up it will detonate and then the Apex seals will be damaged needing a rebuild (The stock Apex\'s will handle any boost if there is enough fuel there and set up correctly).

Thre best peice of advice i can give you is Dont skimp and try to cut corners, becouse a Seven will turn around and bite you in the Wallet.

You also don\'t need to raise the boost to 12-13 psi as the mods you talk about doing the boost will be that anyway what you wnat is to be able to control the boost a sit rises, which it certainly will do when you change complete exhaust system.

Yo Brian two more weeks until I get my money:)
In regards to the Power FC and the commander, are you able to
set boost levels with this and will this negate the need for a seperate boost controller, also does the Power FC handle the Big Single turbo convertions?

[Fooboy]

Blitzboy in answer to all your questions regarding the Power FC, yes yes yes and yes.

It does boost control, but probably not as sophisticated as some aftermarket controllers such as the AVCR as that can do different boost in different gears etc.  Less in first gear to limit wheel spin, more in later gears etc.

The only thing limiting it is it uses the stock sensors that only read up to 17 psi.  If you want to go over that you will need to get the PFC boost controller kit with new sensor or else a piggy back system.

Although it can be done, I wouldn\'t turn up boost without some sort of programable ecu to adjust fuel etc, you are just asking for trouble.  Also an upgraded intercooler is really needed to make the most of boost increases.

As others have said, a full 3inch exhaust and dump pipe will give a heap more power.  My car and a friends that pretty much only have intake and exhausts done put out a bit more than 160 rwkw (215rwhp) on a dyno.

So can\'t you adjust the fuel with the Power FC Ecu then? sorry
bit confused

Brian,

Way earlier in this thread you commented on not knowing exact conversion from mmHg to PSI.  There is a free utility that will do this for you and a whole host of other useful conversions (acceleration, speed, torque etc.):

Thanks Kevin,
I found one in the end. Still don\'t know why mazda do their figures in mmHg.

Cheers

yeah PSI or BAR is what everybody understands.
Come on someone answer question about the Power FC, can
you adjust the fuelling with it? :p

[bnaellis]

yep you sure can. The bit where you got confused is when he mentioned pggyback computers which the power fc is not.
