hey fellas

just a quick one, What is everyones view on the Apexi Boost Controller Kit if you've got a Power FC installed of course,

Over the other electronic Boost controllers eg, GReddy, AVCR etc.

Iv heard the good thing is that it goes straight into the Power FC and u can do all the changing thru the hand controller.

Anyone have any experience?

Cheers

Anyone??

Can't help you - except to say this is a question I'm also interested in as I am seriously considering buying a Power FC myself... I like the idea of having one less gadget cluttering the dash.

I had one in my old R33 GTS25T held 12psi fine. I liked it because it was controlled by the PFC hand controller so I didn't have another 'gadget' cluttering up my dash. I also hear that the solenoids are the same as the Apexi AVCR. Generally I think they are pretty good as long as you aren't running huge amounts of boost.

yeah its an awesome kit. i also personlly believe my car has never run so good as its now aware of the manifold pressure....not just airflow. i think it makes a difference to how the unit behaves and calculates fuel etc etc

    • From the pictures I have when doing the job the flywheel is the same diameter, I don't think they're playing weird tricks like putting weights at the outer diameter to increase flywheel inertia or anything like that. The OEM flywheel is definitely heavier, but it's not a huge difference. Quoted weight savings of the clutch is 2 kg so I can't imagine the flywheel being lighter than ~7 kg. Kind of regret not weighing it before the clutch went into the car but as far as driveability goes I have no complaints.
    • HKS trigger kit should be very easy to integrate with a Link. It's a 36-2 crank trigger. Hard part is finding the motivation to take off the timing belt and everything on the front of the engine to install it. You also need to cut out a hole in the oil pump housing so the sensor can read the trigger wheel. Changing out the cam sensor for a 24 tooth setup is probably good enough but as others have mentioned depending on what underlying assumptions are changed it becomes more of a problem. Reading the crank state off of the cam is an abstraction that works in the general case, but if you have an edge case it makes less and less sense. There is a GTX2860 gen 2 that can take a compact 5 bolt housing so it's direct bolt on but I'm not 100% sure of what's involved. Peak compressor efficiency drops off a bit on these turbos vs -5s, 77% vs 73% but you get way, way wider region of operation. The -5s have a really strange surge line in their compressor map that is all over the place. If you think the hot side on the -5s aren't open enough you can try the Tomei T550B turbos which a local tuner seems to be happy with:
