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...

    • Block bump. $400. As above cyl 6 needs bore or sleeve.
    • I would think making the argument that the travel is limited by a spring flexing against a spring perch as "the same method". Later on in the document they do state that the spring can't bind on full bump travel and cannot come loose in full rebound travel as well. (which is all very sensible). The laws are actually pretty sensible and reasonable. It's just that the people who enforce and check them don't actually read them or know them accurately. "Oh, coilovers? Instant fail mate. Don't even need to look at it." - Guy who will be instantly reported by me. There is probably merit to people who do get defected for height also get defected for the suspension in that state that allows it. I did never consider the people who are complaining about coilovers being picked on are also running around at 50mm off the floor.
    • I think given SAU's knowledge of E85 we can strongly conclude that 10% ethanol in almost any situation is entirely fine. Almost all of the myths against E85 were overblown, let alone E10.
    • From your link See bold text, is this referring to damper settings, if so that may a issue for "some" inspectors, I cannot see aftermarket coilovers having the evidence that "must be available that its functional performance is equivalent to the original" Maybe just remove the adjustment knows and hope for the best???? Meh 5.2 Suspension travel In all instances, modifications to a vehicle’s suspension must ensure the integrity of the system and not compromise the ride quality. At least two thirds of the original suspension travel should be maintained in both directions (rebound (i.e. extension) and bump (i.e. compression)), and rebound must be limited by the same method used by the vehicle manufacturer or if this is not practicable due to the nature of the modification, an equivalent method. If an alternative method is used, evidence must be available that its functional performance is equivalent to the original.
    • They actually don't - They adhere to VSB14 rules just like Victoria. The rules are against CABIN adjustable height, and it quite clearly states that the height has to be within parameters. I asked the VASS engineer to confirm this when I got my car engineered and they refused to engineer the coilovers because they didn't meet the requirements for requiring engineering. (mine are height adjustable.) People "Not wanting to bother" with "Actually reading/knowing/adhering to the rules" should result in fines and immediately losing the ability to issue blue slips and/or RWC's in Vic.
