Avc-r is better and you will have another pretty screen in your car.

The price difference in the price between the kit and the avc-r isn't big!!!

I had an solenoid and a map sensor for avc-r and I made a hand-made harness for the pfc so it is worth!! And also I hate many gauges and screens in my car.

i definately recommend the avc'r as the apexi boost controller kits are useless and unreliable

What the? The AVC'R is Apexi and uses the same solenoid as the Power FC Boost Kit.......

So how did you come to that conclusion?

same logic, same code, same solenoid, same map sensor, same functional control

the avcr has option of

-gear based boost control

the powerfc boost control kit has option of

-boost correction based on intake temp

-boost overrun protection (fuel cut on the ecu if boost spikes 0.25kgcm2 past target boost)

-boost display on hand controller

-boost displayed in logs with datalogit

Yup, its these reasons that made me go with the PFC over AVCR boost controller for my car...

I'm also in the market to get a new EBC, so far I got the AVCR and PFC addon Boost controllers in mind...

-boost overrun protection (fuel cut on the ecu if boost spikes 0.25kgcm2 past target boost)

-boost display on hand controller

If the PFC boost controller is so good, then why would you be getting boost spikes?

Also, this concerns me, because i got rid of my stock AFM and got a PFC to remove the fuel cut, I wouldnt wanna be getting fuel cuts again...

can anyone compare these two boost controllers with the greddy provec b spec 2 boost controller?? how do they compare??

get the profec B II mate. easier to set-up, plus you have a dedicated display which shows the peak boost reached during each burst of acceleration which is very handy when you are tuning the thing. they are easy to install, light and easy to read.

      Version 1 aluminium airbox is.......not acceptable No pics as I "didn't like the look.....alot" Even after all my "CAD", and measurements, the leg near the fusebox just didn't sit right as it ended up about 10mm long and made the angle of the dangle look wrong, the height was a little short as well, meh, I wasn't that confident that Version 1 was going to be an instant winner I might give Version 2 another go, there's plenty of aluminium at work, but, after having in on and off a few times, and laying in the old OEM airbox without the new pod filter and MAF, there may be an option to modify the OEM air box and still use the Autoexe front cover and filter.... maybe This >  Needs to fit in here, but using the panel, and not the pod, the MAF will need to fit in the airbox though> I'm thinking as the old OEM box and Autoexe cover that is sitting in the shed is just sitting around doing nothing, and they are relatively abundant and cheap to replace if I mess it up and need another, it may well fit with some modifications to how the Autoexe brackets mounts to the rad support, and some dremiling to move it get in there, should give me some more room for activities, as I don't want to move the MAF and affect the tune Sealing the hole it requires to stick it in the air box is simple, a tight fit and some pinch weld will seal it up tight  I am calling this a later problem though

      and it ends up being already priced in as though you're just on 91RON without any ethanol. Car will lose a bit of economy as the short and long term fuel trims bring down the AFR back to stoich or whatever it is for cruise/idle for the engine.

      Oh, you are right. But, in Australia E10 is based on 91RON fuel and ends up being 94RON. Hence it being the cheaper option for economy cars. The more performance oriented cars go for the 98RON fuel that has no ethanol mixed in. The only step up we have left then at some petrol stations is E85.

      There is a warning that "this thread is super old" but they ignore that anyway...

      With 10% Ethanol, we're talking 2-3% fuel consumption difference. The emissions reductions and octane boost in my opinion far outweigh this almost non existent loss.    My tanks sitting at 80%. Luckily that should go down fast as I'm on vacation again for the next two weeks.
