hey all got a quick 1 for u about boost control kit for power fc it has 3 vac inputs com,nc,no.

in the apexi powerfc faq it has

COM line should goto wastegate actuator

NO line should goto intercooler piping

but nothing about NC is this where ur map sensor go's or dose map sensor go to intake vac out let..

also why dose NO line goto intercooler piping and not into intake vac out let as thats where most boost controler ran from i throught

i am using external gate mate

so dose external gate go to nc

then whats com go to mate

this what it says for external gate nothing about NC

For external wastegate setup it should be plumbed between the manifold and your external wastegate pressure line.

COM port to the top of the external waste gate

NC port goes to IC pipe - I will explain how I did it

I connected a vac line directly from the blow off valve vac port (on the cross pipe) to the side of the ex gate. T pieced that vac line close to the IC pipe and ran one to the blow off valve (like it is stock) and the other to the NC port on the solenoid

Hope that helps

well NO stands for normally open and NC for.... you guessed it normally closed. so you'll only be using one or the other depending on the type of solenoid/set-up you have. not both. so if you are plumbing up the NO line then of course the NC port is connected to nothing.

the top of my ex gate is vent atnosphere and the side is to boost controler so from the side port on gate to com and nc to ic pipe

i have a greddy intake so my bov is vac to intake vac port

so nc must go to IC pipe dose it matter what side of IC it is or can it go to intake vac port

where dose map sensor go do it go to 1 of the intake vac ports

people dont have to answer and they might not

do some research yourself or make it easier for people to understand what you are trying to achieve

try drawing a diagram and posting it up - you might get a quicker response

    • Hi from Canada, Both of my calipers are starting to fail. My car is a 2005 M35 Stagea ARX and I can't seem to find any parts or any cross reference caliper that would fit my car. Is there a company or a similar caliper that would fit and I could replace the OEM one. Or if anyone knows where I can find a new OEM. Any help is very appreciated. Let me know!
    • Maf is a question mark but TPS  I have set at 0.47, the fact that I’m getting proper voltage range out of it with the key on leads me to believe it’s functioning properly. I’m getting proper voltages on basically everything. I still need to look up voltage ranges for z32 maf and test that 
    • Honestly no not at all, but it’s a very basic tune, it’s stock injectors q45 tps and z32 maf. Other than that it’s a completely stock base map. The file is from nistune and from my understanding if it was tune related I would be able to unplug maf and tps and it would still start even if it was a really shitty start. I have tried starting it with coolant temp, maf, and tps unplugged none of those 3 togethor or individually changes anything

    • What does it look like with highway driving? And yes, I had a similar thought as Duncan. It looks quite similar in my Stagea and I have made myself accept it as normal. Might have to look into it some day   Highway gets as low as 10l/100km on my end so I'm not as worried about it being a mechanical issue. More likely just the tune on the haltech.
