so, thanks again paul. I un ticked all the settings and now parameters are shown in the commander.

regards.

the only problem is that now it starts but after 1 or 2 seconds i t dies :ermm:

After any change it was running good.

But, if i crank it and keep pressing and depressing the gas very quickly, it stays at 4000 RPM. It runs very weird ant extremely rich. And as soon as i stop pressing the gas it dies.

could it be beacause of the unlock i did?

thanks.

i would do this

save your tune

make sure you have a copy of it

make sure you have a backup of the copy

DATA INIT the EVO PFC

restart the car

do a READ ALL in datalogit and save the stock maps

then compare those to what you have, it might be something simple

doing a data init would save the MAP sensor settings?

BTW, is it possible that the problem i'm having is due to a ECU issue?

Thanks.

no, when you do a DATA INIT, it will erase the entire tune back to defaults

the default map will be what apexi set the standard map on the EVO PFC to

hmmm....

so i'll have to use the map calibration saved in the map.

Thanks a lot paul, i'll try this and let you know if i get any good result.

BTW, what is that about a Tuner String???

Edited by chip

send us your saved datalogit tune, ill check it vs the stock evo maps

the tuner is string is from apexi fc pro and datalogit

its used to tag features in datalogit, ie anti lag and other junk

ignore it

So this is a power fc PRO???

Thanks.

no, the term FC Pro is misleading by apexi. its covered in the powerfc faq in my sig

FC Pro is software apexi use to tune powerfc's.

the 1st generation of powerfcs were only tunable by the hand controller

the 2nd generation of powerfcs were plastered with silver "FC PRO" stickers on the side of the case and were tunable by the hand controller and software apexi made (and later sold to the public). the software is apexi fc pro and it lets you connect it to your computer / laptop.

the common misconception is that any powerfc that has the original silver "FC Pro" sticker on the side of the case meant that is an Apexi PowerFC Pro unit. this meant it contained 0km/h launch control and spark cut instead of fuel cut. The silver "FC pro" sticker acctually indiciates that you can connect it to the apexi's FC Pro software

Paul, thank you VERY MUCH mate.

I did the data init and it started great. It tooked some time for idle to settle down but it's runing great.

Map sensor scaling seems to be working fine.

No i just need to tune it.

Once again, thank you indeed.

PS: If i need more help i'll contact you :)

now that the car is working etc, you should be able to open your old tune in datalogit and do a WRITE ALL

to put the tune back to its previous unlocked state

it may be a datalogit bug where unlocking certain tunes mangles stuff

but the tune itself is OK, so if you save it, DATA INIT, write the tune back its all OK

if you have unstable idle read the PFC FAQ For self install

theres a 30 min self idle you are supposed to do when you do DATA INIT

    • I would paint match the whole thing to avoid unwanted attention  I had a similar bonnet, paint matched, on my old R33 GTST, but mine was a fibreglass jobbie made by Blitz in QLD, they work extremely well for radiator efficiency and under bonnet temps
    • Does anyone run this kit with factory plenum? Does the adapter and bosch tb fit under factory strut brace? I wanted to get this setup before going forward facing manifold. Thanks
    • small update time, after always wanting a "cool" looking bonnet for my car and always struggling to find one for the series 2 that i liked and wasn't an insane amount of money. Saw one i liked on RHDjapan from D-speed in Japan the price was very good for a carbon bonnet so good infact i was a little unsure how much i trusted it, decided to bite the bullet and with the help of jesse streeter in not long at all it was at my door. Once it was delivered i ran in from work and quickly unboxed it and to my surprise the quality was actually pretty good i quickly removed the old bonnet and placed on the new one to test it out and even the fitment wasnt too bad at all. Then decided to paint the little grille in the bonnet black to stop it sticking out so much.   I decided to not mess around with the hood latch and just install some aero catch hood pins, having never installed them before did some YouTube university classes and i was good to go. fair to say it is not a fun job at all from making brackets so the pins sit nicely and actually cutting through the bonnet but also being very scared of cutting the holes too big it took wayyyy longer than i would like to admit but finally got it there. Then it was time for a quick test drive to ensure the latches actually worked and thankfully the bonnet looked very stable. I still think paint matching the bonnet and leaving just the part that sticks up as carbon would help make it all look alot neater as im not sure how i feel about all that carbon on a very fridge white car but will leave it as is and see how i feel with time.  
    • I think it's bound to happen, you finally get it all perfect, and bam, something will happen. I took a while to get a Commodore rear quarter repaired where a P Plater clipped it. Two days after getting it back, Sarah wiped it out on a concrete pillar in an underground car park... This is why I take forever to repair them, it stretches how long until it gets bent again... 😛
    • Nah, not really responsible for that little fiasco, but I'm still pissed at myself for writing off my 86, or when I reversed my VX into a pole just before selling it, but, meh, 5hit happens to stuff, all it takes is a slight distraction, and life is full of distractions, and "dooh" moments
