updated PFC FAQ

first update since july last year

- apexi are now selling ECR33 and ER34 models brand new

- you can buy these from nengun.com including EL hand controller

just wanted to say thanks for this thread/article, some great info.

i've managed to modify my standard ecu bracket to house the pfc, allows me to plug in the hand controller without issue and sits perfectly in the standard spot... anyone handy with the tools should give this a go :)

cant you just take the cover off your factory ecu and screw it onto the power fc?

what is special about your powerfc?

you need to look up the pinouts for the R33 and then wire the signal wire for the tacho onto the guage

because you are using a powerfc it makes no difference, its the same RPM pin out if using the stock ecu as well

FYI Paul those new Power-FC's that Nenguns is selling have a 2+ month wait on them. I went through hell trying to get one through them in a resonable time and ended up cancelling my order and getting one used. They do have decent customer service though.

Paul: Is there anything different with the new Power FC's or are they just re-released with new chips?

Also 'STATUS' was talking about there being some trouble with the tuning software communicating between laptop and ECU, any word on this?

Sorry if its covered in the FAQ, couldnt find it and just wanted to know

Yeah I think I asked some questions as well but it seems to have been forgotten

was going to PM STATUS but doesnt look like he accepts PM's

Just wait and see I guess. I might be getting one so hopefully my laptop will talk to it

My car is in the shop at the moment and the guys are unable to get the ecu to communicate withe PC. Not 100% sure on the issue but will find out more tomorrow.

They are waiting on a reply from fc datalogit but from what I have read I dont think I should hold my breath.

    • Do you think the guys in Penrith are install the E85 Kit?
    • Thanks Pac!   I will reach out to them!
    • Yes, but 2 things of the top of my head, 1. Legalities of nitrous on a street car. 2. No chop chop. I fully understand that there's much cheaper ways to make power, and whilst a wet 50 shot is fairly cheap to install, bottle fills are expensive, and bottles always need to be refilled, and nitrous also has its own inherent issues with reliability, and tuning, from my experience of others using nitrous, it doesn't take alot to lunch a engine real quick if something goes slightly wrong when spraying, if I wanted a big chunk of additional powers, a spooly boy would make alot more sense, disregarding the additional engineering, supporting mods and other logistical issues of sticking a spooly boy on a car that came naturally aspirated from factory  In the end I'm not racing for sheep stations, and I don't really care if people make more power, or are faster than me, or spend less, or more than me, the only thing the car needs to do is drive around and make me smile, which it is doing now Really, I just want a shiny new intake to look at when I'm cleaning the engine bay, and of course, some more induction doorts, and maybe even that 5kw for that elusive 200hp cherry on top that I might get If the FAB9 intake plenum, TB and air filter box thing doesn't eventuate for whatever reason, Plasmaman do one, not as fancy looking, and a fair chunk of more cash is required when including the TB and other bits and pieces that are required to install it, but, it is another option that is available to me if FAB9 one does fall down (but I really, really.....really, want the FAB9 one though) TL;DR. You want what you want
