Does anyone know how to fit a boost control kit for the power fc any pic would be helpful.
Dude see if u not know what ur talking about as u clearly don't , don't botherwhat you have to do is connect the part of the loom that normally goes to the standard boost hi/lo control solenoid to the apexi solinoid and the pipe your vacuums up,
simples

Boost Controller Kit Type #1 - 3 wire plug, Solenoid runs to stock boost control loom on stock ECU wiring loom.
maybe for the mapsensor but not for the boost controll kit - do you want me to take a picture and show you ? the map sensor does plug straight into the side of the ecu but the integral boost control solenoid plugs into the standard loom,
I was considering this kit but when I did the conversion I removed the wiring for the stock solenoid as I knew I wouldnt want the high/low function.
So you have this fitted and working on your car? the Apexi solenoid is plugged into the stock high/low solenoid plug and it has no other wiring to it and the map sensor is connected to the 5 pin plug on the side of the ECU?
I thought the boost control kit loom had plugs for the Apexi solenoid and map sensor both and it plugged into the 5 pin ECU plug, then you select use of the Apexi map sensor and boost control kit use in the software. What boxes are checked in the settings pages of your ECU set up and what way are your map sensor and solenoid connected?
Its a different set up to the kit I have seen before, the stock solenoid does not control boost, the actuator spring does, all the stock solenoid does is bleed some air off to increase boost for the high setting. The PFC must be configured to control boost this way as per the 4 choice setting in the software, where the stock ECU is not and thats maybe where the confusion is.
I have an AVCR and it uses the duty funtion as well, something thats a bit confusing for someone not that familiar with it, but I might connect the AVCR solenoid up to the stock wires and see if it will work when selected to do so.
Thanks for the pics and the info, great help!!
yer give it a go and see what happens does the avcr solenoid that you use have the same plug on it as the one that i am using ?????
Doubt it, I will link the wires accross the plug but.
