I dont know a whole lot about the various options but are looking into buying a FMIC, and logically, a boost controller with it. However, just wondering what the opinions/experience is with having a separate boost controller or using combo with a new computer (ie boost controll kit with an Apexi Power FC). I am looking at a GReedy FMIC and a GReddy PRofec B Spec II EBC. However, want to replace ECU with Apexi Power FC in the near (income willing) future. As a result, considering the boost control kit as part of Apexi stuff. Just means i need to buy it all at once i suppose? Does anyone know much about the Apexi boost control kit, ie i suppose all control of it is done through a commander right? (this makes me think i will go the separate EBC). Thanks in advance.

I will be getting my power FC + commander (hand controller) and boost controller in the next few weeks. As far as I know you will need the commander to change settings for the boost controller. Boost controller for the power FC uses the same solenoid as the avc-r.

my suggestion would be.... if you are going to get a power fc but dont want to get it all at once just get a cheap adjustable boost controller (around $70)... obviously it wont be electronic for this price... but once you have got the power fc + commander you can get the boost controller to go with it later on....

Sorry if any of this doesn't make sense.... just drove home from qld in a 180 so I am a bit tired...

Many people here are currently using either the PFC boost controller or another brand, type etc of EBC. This has been covered a few times before. Do a quick search and you'll get some great info.

    • Mixing things up - installed some leather recaros to match the leather seat covered rear seats. Interior looks pretty schmick now except for some slight wear on the steering wheel which I will monitor and address if it becomes worse or actually noticeable!  
    • Didnt realise RB's had more then 1 head.
    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
