The price is pretty good if you don't need to worry about organsing to buy it, you can get it cheaper elsewhere depends on how quickly you want it. $240 seems okish for an install hope that also includes them configuring it as well ???

---Updated---

Nengun = AU $ 503.36 + shipping = $546.30

Greenline = AU 503.735 + Shipping = ???

But keep in mind that these ones you may also have to pay import tax etc so i would actually buy it from him unless you want to get one second hand.

Also depends on if you are going to buy another ecu later. If you are then an AVCR is probably overkill. It does some of the simple things that an AM ecu does.

If you can get a boost controller for sub $400, then you are wasting $200? but if you don't intend getting an ecu for a while then the AVCR is a good cheaper compromise.

I was told the PowerFC boost controller plug in was not soo good.

I'd love for someone to actually show me some funky stuff with the AVCR when i do my high-flo upgrade.

The standard ECU will remain in place, I doubt it will ever be replaced. But it is being retuned by CEF11E once the turbo is finished being high flowed. I’m also getting a bigger fuel pump put in. so I think I should be pretty happy with the final product. Edd at Integra tells me the turbo should have no problems doing 220+ rwkw. But as far as I know I will probably need bigger injectors. As I think the standard RB20 items will only flow enough for around 200rwkw

I wasn't saying not to buy a boost controller. The pfc one is OK, but basic, you would better with a dedicated evc no arguments from me there. What I was saying is that an AVCR is a boost controller plus a boost response controller. This is also done and done much better by a pfc.

If you aren't getting a pfc then its no problem = spend an extra $200 and get the AVCR.

If your plans include a pfc then get a $400 boost controller and put the $200 you save towards your pfc.

re: spiking?

My understanding from the manual, is that once you start to spike you need to work on Solenoid duty timing and the like.

Of course this requires more work and testing, but i plan to let people far more knowledgable than i tune the bejesus out of it at the time.

I-Colour - very nice. Haven't read all this thread but I just had one fitted and I think it's the "ants pants". Yeah it has heaps of functionality and 4 boost settings which may well be deemed overkill. However, I like it 12, 15, 18 and 22 psi. It's going to be nice to go to the track and just select channel 3 (18psi) 300 awkws, boast or boost :)

It's extremely precise and very easy to use, configure/set. Gets my vote also for the amount of info that is displayed.

    • Just bought a 2002 Stagea 250tRS VR-X Four AERO VQ25DET and spent the last two weekends cleaning and detailing it.. still have to do the wheels and the engine bay but the rest of it came up nice. Imported 2011 to S.A. and I'm the third owner since it was imported. I met the guy who brought it over, he went to Japan and picked out the car, bought it and ordered the wheels. He also gave me a list of stuff he did to the car with receipts. Coil overs (I have the original springs), 3" exhaust from the dump pipe back no cat, Custom dump pipe,(I have the original exhaust), Plenum spacer, 18" custom Work XSA wheels (need restoring, I've made a start..), Shift kit put through the 5 speed tiptronic auto, TV and menus/screens changed to english, Australian DTV tuner installed in rear. I've just had four new discs and new pads as well as all the fluids including the brake fluid replaced. I have all the receipts for the last 15 years and the import papers in a nice folder. Car looks great, goes like hell but fuel economy is not a thing lol.. pics next..
    • I ended up in this rut again lol, and used a shit ton of filler. One thing I can't understand is, even after using a big long block and going in long X pattern strokes, I always end up at bare metal again with no filler, and my repair started at one end of the door and now I've chased my tail to almost the other end of the door. I was thinking of hitting the panel with a hammer where it might be a high spot and making everything low then filling it, I did this on a small section on my other door by mistake and I think I fixed it lol. Is this a bad idea? The other thing is with guidecoat, whether it's the powder or spray, after I sand all the guide coat off, it doesn't reveal anything for me in terms of high spots and low spots and makes it especially hard when it's bare metal (at least in powdered form), am I doing something wrong here, or likely a high spot I keep going over and creating valleys? Lastly, stupid question but, is it possible that after sanding if I only sand over the filler area where I know to be a dent that it's impossible for me to dig into that dent? Unless there are other problems which I missed.  
    • Yeah the rule of thumb with an LS is 7psi per 1000rpm. That is decidedly not enough at 6800rpm. I mainly looked for the scenarios where knock started to be picked up and it was later in the session when things were hotter, and oil was thinner, and the pressure was lower than it should be. (i.e very horrible). I am hoping with thicker oil (I was running Penrite ten tenths 10-40, the manual specifies 10-30) that does not leak that it's much improved at that time!!! I am using Project Mu Club Racer CR pads. I'm also using the Project Mu 335C fluid. The symptoms imply that it was fluid that boiled, but no bubbles seemed pretty weird to me when I bled it today. I want to try Castrol SRF as it has a much higher wet temp but, well, I have new Project Mu fluid lol... so I should at least use that. The pedal on track was really noticable. It went from basically normal feeling to instantly near-floor. The car did pull up as before, it was just very much nearly at the floor before the brakes engaged. At that point I pretty much decided the day was very done, it did *kinda* come back during that very slow cooldown lap into the pits. Felt perfectly fine driving home.
