Apexi Power Fc. How Much Gain Is Reasonable ?

[GTR34-Vspec]

Hi all, Im hunting around for a best place (Melb) to tune my stock r34 gtr with 3" cat back. So far i've got 3 quotes:

1 - Apexi power fc + 1.0 bar of boost = 250 KW at 4wheels. Total $1725 (no after market boost cont)

2 - Apexi power fc + 1.0 bar = 210KW at 4wheels. Total $1800 (no after market boost cont)

3 - Apexi power fc + 0.9 bar = 220KW at 4wheels. Toatl $3000 (with Blitz dual stage ebc)

Two of them said no need to fit a boost controller for this simple modification, because the Apexi pfc can controll the boost level. Well, the other one recommended me to fit an ebc.

Anyway, by compairing the ouput power and the money, they were confusing me !!!!

So anyone has this sort of experience with this simple modification, please specify me what gain i should achieve and how much i should pay is reasonable and where to tune. THANKSSS.

Just to clear things up, i'm guessing the prices ur quoting are with them suppling u with the pfc, and the power is just estimates if so i wouldn't use any of them, the first 2 are incorrect, (correct me if i'm wrong guys) but to control boost y would apexi sell an additional boost control kit to be used exclusivly with the pcf if it already did it. my advice would be to buy the pfc from neugun and the blitz duel stage (i've got an apexi avcr and love it) wire it in urself it's really easy if u can use a soldering iron then send it off to a dyno place for a good tuning, sounld come in well under $3000 but if ur happy to pay 3g go with tuner number 3, my 2cents worth!
