Ok, i've really developed an interest in tuning power fc's and want to get FC Datalogit to actually do it on mine.

On they're website they advertise the software and the cable for $400ish i think, on this smaller tuning site ausperformace they advertise it for $650 but with some LC1 cable.

A few people have told me the cable itself is 600-700... I'm confused.

So i need to get the software to do it with, the cable to connect it to my laptop and how important is a wideband o2 sensor?

Thanks alot

datalogit = $500 ish

wideband sensor = $500 for a wire in kit, upto $1k for a portable wideband kit

the wideband is an absolute must for on road and dyno tuning

without it all you can is increase timing and wait for it detonate

there is lots of documentation on PFC tuning and datalogit tuning

the PFC FAQ covers these items to death, the link is in my signature

The LC1 kit (around $2-300) consists of a wideband O2 sensor (which can be fitted in place of your standard one) and a cable which can connect to your laptop (or to an LM1 or LM2 datalogger). Check the www.innovatemotorsports.com site. There is an Australian made kit from Tech Edge (do a search on this site for SK's account of building and using one).

i disagree with that, the sensor needs to be about 3 feet away from the turbine outlet according to my wb02 manual.

thats where i fitted mine, also the angle & location around the pipe is important for sensor life.

cheers

    • Time will tell, they're doing all the admin stuff at the moment. I've submitted all the required details, photos, etc.   I was under the impression that DC coupling is the best approach, i.e.: Solar Array -> Battery Invertor -> Battery  Where as AC Coupling is simpler, however less efficient, i.e.: Solar Array -> Solar Invertor -> Battery Invertor -> Battery
    • The price is really great for that kind of capacity. I thought similar setups cost way more. How's your efficiency been with the DC-coupling? I've heard sometimes there can be a bit of a performance loss.
    • Long time no random post about shit. So I went down this deep deep rabbit hole of battery storage for the home, ended up locking in a 41.9kWh Fox ESS EQ4800 with 9 units stacked. Battery uses Lithium Iron Phosphate, similar to what you find in those deep cycle boat/caravan batteries. And yes, why did I go with a cheapie brand and not like Synergy? simply because I don't plan to stay at this house for more than another 3~5 years.  The entire install, DC coupling (removal of existing invertor, connecting the current 6.6kW array direct to the battery invertor), new 8kW invertor is $6K all up (after all the rebates etc.). Going with this lot: https://www.aussiesolarbatteries.com.au/ It did seem a bit too good to be true, however seems like the Whirlpool community has vetted it and when it comes to this kind of stuff, they seem to be all over it: https://forums.whirlpool.net.au/thread/9pxj8482?p=38   I've requested for the battery to be installed outside, next to my meter board and not inside - rather have it combust and ignite outside lol.    
    • In Vic it would be a defect regardless of whether or not you cut a hole in the sheetmetal for the return pipe. The rules in Vic are shitful, and are generally interpreted as you can "make 2 mods to the intake system". Putting an FFP and an FMI onto it will almost certainly be seen as some huge number of intake mods. You really need to speak to an engineer before doing this stuff in VIC.
    • planning a r34 rb25 de+t with some other work, rather just have it done in a shop due to space limitations any recommendations? I have most the parts already I seen online Moore Performance and DR Drift any advice appreciated thanks
