This is a sad, sad day >_<

Kevin from envy has just posted this on a forum i frequent, not good news...

Hi all just to let you know Apexi (Apexera) Japan has filed for bankruptcy: https://www.teikoku.com/Bankruptcy.aspx

All operations have been halted at this time. We will stop taking any orders for their products as of today.

This is the second time the company has gone bust in the last year! I think there was a managment buy out when the company was re-named Apexera this has now looks like it has failed.

Its hard to see how they can go wrong as they have some great products.

Just as well we sell the Power Enterprise Airfilters as they seam to be the best remaining alternative.

Thanks

Kevin

I'm going to buy a few extra Power Intake replacement filters as they are top notch.

Quite sad to see them go. A few years ago they were definitely up there with the best. Why all downhill from then? They were the electronics king...

i find it interesting that people still think apex only changed thier name recently..... it has been apexera for over 3 years..... they have been on the rocks for maybe 5... surely it is not a real suprise. Hopefully a chinese company will take over like they did with buddy club, bomex etc.

Just a thought.... can you reproduce a product if the parent company is dead and gone? copyright wise ec?

re-proing PFC's in china would be a relatively easy and cheap thing to do....... food for though.

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.

      Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂

      Cas issue

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.

      Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
