Dont get a power fc to gain power, power fc just provides much more tuning potential. you might squeeze a few kw's out of it. What mods are you currently running?

errr damo, did you not gain like 35rwkw from a tune with a power fc?

Tuning potential = power gain, power delivery

i gained power coz i upped the boost by 3 psi.

hahahahaha

damo, so michael spend nearly 2 hours taking massive amounts of fuel out and tiding up your timing for no reason?

The way your tune was, if you up the boost by 3psi, you probably would have gain around 5rwkw.

160odd to 200 with 3psi, I wish it was that easy.

^^^^ lol, well i wouldnt spend 1500-2000 on a power fc and tune to get f*#k all results thats just wasting money. Mods i hav are fmic, 500hp fp, 3.5 catback, pod filter, platnium plugs, suspected highflow running 10-12psi mayb others but unsure. I kno that 220kw's seem high for mods, i hav copped heaps of shit from mates bout this so dont bothering telling me but its not like i asked the dyno to give me a high reading lol

The guys are using the "nistune" sytems these days for remaps. Technology has come along way compared to remaps 2 years ago etc. There wouldn't be much difference between this and a power fc in tunability, I chose the power fc simply for the read outs it gives and when you add more mods it is simplier to upgrade the ecu data via the hand controller.

This will give you all the information you will need about the remaps.

what doesn't help is unnecessary input.

put simply

Power FC: get it if you are planning on getting heaps of tunes or you want a hand controller with Live information

Remap: Get it if you want a cheap, quick fix and which does the same job, if not better with knock correction.

As above ^^

I recently became aware of the Nistune Type 4 daughterboard for the R34 RB25DET and had boostworx install and dynotune it. Got like 20-25rwkw without touching boost... a/f was sitting around 10.8 before the remap, and after shuan was done with it, it was around 11.8.

Highly recommend boostworx if you want to do it in SA, Shaun does around 2-3 remaps on skylines a week.

ok so i spoke to shaun at boostworx today and hav decided to get a remapped z32 ecu as he sed it is bout as good as power fc, the fc just has the hand controller which gives it a small advantage. Speedlab never got bak to me so i spose its his loss and my gain as i will end up with something a lil better in my opion

ryanrb35, if you had any idea what you were talking about you would stop going on about pfc being so much better that the standard comp... seriously! by you stating a remap as a "quickfix" ur kinda showing ur lack of knowledge! we do 5-6 re-maps a week on average, u cant beat pure facts!

im sorry jeff didnt get back to you man, he is a verry bussy man! lol

are you happy with the price of modding the vg30 comp? (adjusting all the wires and so fawth) jus is kinda going about it the hard way, but if you will be that much happier keeping ur vct then do what makes u happy! :D

have you had it tuned yet? what did it make? hopfully it turned out that u had a hi-flow on there...

    • Yeah I understand you have to pay for an updated map or subscription service or something. But I can't even find a current map for Australia. My map is dated 2017, but didn't this car version still sell in Australia until 2021?   Also, just as an aside, the navigation system warns you of traffic incidences ahead.....why would they include that on a map they knew is not receiving live information. I am forever going to be warned of an incident that probably existed for 30 minutes 8 years ago.

    • sensible choice....and all 32s should be in yellow
    • Run it in open loop for now, and drop the frequency down. This lowers the resolution and requires more duty cycle to do anything, however good to troubleshoot.
    • According to Josh, one of our local Americans, it seems the USA still can't get turbo systems quite right at a lot of places, so possible that they're not running great at all, but they've just not complained as NFI about getting it right...
