I have been using an Apexi AVC-R (blue screen) for about a year now and cannot fault the unit.

That said the scramble function allows you to set a boost level and an interval for that setting. I have never used this function and want to know if it is possible to set up so that as long as the scramble button is depressed the EBC will give the higher boost setting. (being so it activates whilst a button is depressed... not for say 6 seconds fter the button has been depressed)

I would rather not have to change EBCs, but i want to be able to run around a circuit at 10-12psi and when i hit the straight bump up boost to around 18-19psi.

Having to preset the scramble feature for a set interval means i can only use the scramble on say the main straight.

Thoughts???

I have the HKS EVC4 and its really easy to set up like that, but the AVC-R - sorry I can't help you. Maybe try to get some decent product documentation from somewhere. Apex's manuals are ordinary. The guy I bought my EVC form was lucky enough to source the proper tuning/install manual from a HKS tuner direct. Aparently, the manual that comes with the EVC is 3 pages, but the one I have is 28 pages, very detailed.

The people doing the work on my car (Bel Performance in Homebush 9763 7022) have hooked up a scramble button on the steering wheel for the AVC-R.

It should be cheap as it's just a momentary button.

I'm not sure I want one of those as I'd be tempted to "HIT IT" at every traffic light :)

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
