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.

thats what i have been told also, and they're at a pretty good price aswell, and my tuner recommended it too.. thanks mate

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      ..this is the current state of that port. I appreciate the info help (and the link to the Earls thing @Duncan). Though going by that it seems like 1/4 then BSP'ing it and using a bush may work. I don't know where I'd be remote mounting the pressure sender... to... exactly. I assume the idea here is that any vibration is taken up by the semiflexible/flexible hose itself instead of it leveraging against the block directly. I want to believe a stronger, steel bush/adapter would work, but I don't know if that is engineeringly sound or just wishful thinking given the stupendous implications of a leak/failure in this spot. What are the real world risks of dissimilar metals here? It's a 6061 Aluminum block, and I'm talking brass or steel or SS adapters/things.

      And if you have to drill the oil block, then just drill it for 1/4" and tap it BSP and get a 1/8 to 1/4 BSP bush. The Nissan sender will go straight in and the bush will suit the newly tapped hole. And it will be real strong, to boot.

      No it doesn't. It just needs an ezy-out to pull that broken bit of alloy out of the hole and presto chango - it will be back to being a 1/8" hole tapped NPT. as per @MBS206 recco. That would be for making what you had in alloy, in steel. If you wanted to do just that instead of remote mounting like @Duncan and I have been pushing. A steel fitting would be unbreakable (compared to that tragically skinny little alloy adapter). But remote mounting would almost certainly be 10x better. Small engineering shops abound all over the place. A lathe and 10 minutes of time = 2x six packs.

      Ahh. Well the block damage is a problem, you really need to run a tap or thread chaser through it to see if the threads can be saved, but any chips are likely to be bottom end bound which is bad. Earls seem to have what you need if you want to stick with mounting direct on the block: https://rceperformance.com.au/parts/earls-straight-adapter-1-8-npt-male-to-1-8-bspt-female.html, but as I said above I'd recommend remote mounting the sender

      I'm not quite understanding or I'm missing steps here, (I appreciate people are trying to inform my brain but I am of the dumb, especially today) - All I want to do is mount the male BSPT of the OEM sender into the system somewhere without it snapping the adapter via vibration. The Nissan sender has a male 1/8 BSPT output. The block has a (very destroyed) 1/8 NPT input. I'm not really sure how a lathe assists with that, and also don't know anybody with a lathe, nor specifically what I would want to buy. I'm not really sure how adding additional adapters creates a better, more leak proof resilient seal here.
