Hey guys/girls,

My car is getting tuned on Monday at Boostworx and I might be needing to borrow a Power FC hand Controller for half a day. Just wondering if anyone would be willing to lend me/shaun their controller?

Any help greatly appreciated!

Cheers

Darren

Yer i can lend you mine. Its from the r32 AP engineering version. Im going past Shaun's monday so i'll drop it off then if you like.

It should work i think...I'll go past Boostworx and speak to Shaun, and he can ring you if it'll work...

I have a series two hand controller that you can borrow

depends how old the power fc is whether you will need series 1 or 2 and now i think there is series 3 but im sure the series 2 works on the 3rd version

let me know

Yeh i'm not too sure what series it is! It was installed by the previous owner in 2001 i believe!

Trick if you wanna PM me your number and if Bl4cK32's doesn't work i may need to call you.

I would assume a controller is a controller, BUT you never know i guess!

Cheers Trick

if its 2001 it could be either you just have to try them and aparently the series 1 ones are pretty rare to get a hold of too

I've got one you can probably borrow as well, bought it fairly recently though - not sure if it would work or not... :P

I reckon the controllers _are_ different depending on the unit, but it's quite possible i'm wrong :P

Bl4ck32, that may be handy for me too if you are going past Boostworx with the AP hand controller. My car is there at the moment getting a turbo and FC installed and I dont have a hand controller. Car has been there a while and i havent spoken to shaun for a while, but i'll speak to him tomorrow. He should be tuning it this week, so he will probably need one if he hasn't got one. (I kinda assumed he had one as he didn't mention that he would need one when i dropped the car off.)

Cheers.

      Boost level and torque curve

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      Because there is still an engine underneath that turbo. PSI is not a measurement of power, it's a byproduct of resistance. What would be really decent is to have a CFM gauge on the output of a turbo to see how much it's actually pushing. 21psi (as an example) is not the same amount of air at 3000rpm as it is at 7000rpm, even if the boost controller is controlling boost at "21psi". The engine is inhaling and exhaling way more air at 7000 than at 3000, even if it's less efficient.

      Boost level and torque curve

      don't want anything more or less, I don't really understand why the torque still goes up to 6000-6500, while the boost peak is around 4000. if it only comes from the cams or from the boost controller etc.

      Boost level and torque curve

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      I'm not sure you understand the physics of what you are asking. Can you draw on the dyno graph what you want to have happen? I'm thinking this is a functional impossibility here, unless you chose a turbo literally so laggy that torque is at max at 7000rpm and artificially choked prior to that. Power and Torque are intrinsically linked. Power is just Torque over time. What you're really seeing in the torque graph is "Power per RPM" if that makes any sense whatsoever. You still get more power at 7000rpm than 5000rpm, because it is "power per RPM" and you have more RPM. at 7000 than you do at 5000. You still feel more powerful at 7000rpm. The torque graph will influence the rate of power increase per RPM.

      Welcome!  If possible,  would live to see some pics. How long was it away getting the work done? Hopefully it feels like a new machine.

      yes indeed the graphic format makes a visual difference but there is on average 120nm more between 4000 and 6000rpm on the curves it is not nothing. you are right, the cams influence the torque curve. I was able to chat with one of the Hypergear tuners, he confirmed that a boost control allows you to manage the pressure after the spool. the absolute pressure (psi) on the graphics is measured where? It seems that the cams affect the maximum pressure depending on the regime but I may be wrong.   not pleasant to drive before 4000? if we spend our lives between 1000 and 3000 rpm as you say then we might as well just run diesel turbos
