Apexi PowerFC ?

[DJ_L3ThAL]

hehe, you'll still need to tune it...

does the fc bost control allow muliple setting, ie. streetm, drag and track for example ?

Thing is nath, with the AVC-R .. You're going to have to know how to set it otherwise all those options will just stay as your tuner sets them.. while there are all those options, how often are you going to play with them? Most of the reviews of comparitive boost controllers (i think it was autospeed), put the Profec in pretty much the same bracket as the AVC-R - even if does have all that other finer adjustments the final result comes down to pretty much the same.

i mean you, me, everybody can adjust your S-AFC at anytime but how often do you do it unless we know what we are really doing? How often do i adjust my actual boost in the car? not at all.. because that can only lead to detonation probs if i **** it up

Just get the PowerFC and track down the boost solonoid (which is same as AVC-R anyway).. it will be pretty much offer the same complete package as the AVC-R + PowerFC anyway, you just don't have another bit of rice in your car.. Instead of a separate AVC-R control panel, you just use the PFC h/c to set the same settings..

You save money, and don't forget the stealth aspect as well for hiding all your power mods away.

You too denham

yer i think the powerfc + controller + boost is my best option, whaether i go 2nd hand or brand new ($450 difference) im not sure.. but ill definitely have the controller in the glove box and lock that when cops pull me over

yes he does say that

[Sydneykid]

I also believe that shipping is included...

[R31Nismoid]

So inasnt....

did you get your new or is it second hand ?

Cause if it's second hand... $1300 vs $1460 odd brand new... i know which i'll get.

And AVC-R... i can get one for $500 (new model) so therefore i can fiddle with it myself ? is it worth the extra $150 or so.

you do get the solenoid that way and i can leave the hand controller at home if i'm not tuning (correct?)

Or won't i even need a hand controller then ?

god i rabble on sometimes.

The AVC-R and HC in my car are independent systems.

The boost on the HC non functional.

But there are some systems replicated on both.

New HC and few months old PFC.

[R31Nismoid]

do they don't toatlly wipe each other out so you can still have them both ?

then just not use the HC unless tuning ?

huh? i didnt get that last comment

the AVC-R allows gear based boost settings, I don't think the PowerFC add on EBC lets you do this?

If you're after replacement ECU, have you thought about the Wolf3D v4? The 200SX list has a few guys using it.

I think it too is a swap-in, swap-out ECU with just one or two sensors needing to be installed??? (Sorry to be vague, but that's all I have heard about it).

how does it know what gear u r in?

[T0nyGTSt]

I agree with Ed here. Good reports on the Wolf and it has a good rep. on the 300zx.

It is a closed loop unit (better check this!) so it doesn't have the problems that plague the Microtech.
