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 :P

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 :)

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 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).
