so, thanks again paul. I un ticked all the settings and now parameters are shown in the commander.

regards.

the only problem is that now it starts but after 1 or 2 seconds i t dies :ermm:

After any change it was running good.

But, if i crank it and keep pressing and depressing the gas very quickly, it stays at 4000 RPM. It runs very weird ant extremely rich. And as soon as i stop pressing the gas it dies.

could it be beacause of the unlock i did?

thanks.

i would do this

save your tune

make sure you have a copy of it

make sure you have a backup of the copy

DATA INIT the EVO PFC

restart the car

do a READ ALL in datalogit and save the stock maps

then compare those to what you have, it might be something simple

doing a data init would save the MAP sensor settings?

BTW, is it possible that the problem i'm having is due to a ECU issue?

Thanks.

no, when you do a DATA INIT, it will erase the entire tune back to defaults

the default map will be what apexi set the standard map on the EVO PFC to

hmmm....

so i'll have to use the map calibration saved in the map.

Thanks a lot paul, i'll try this and let you know if i get any good result.

BTW, what is that about a Tuner String???

Edited by chip

send us your saved datalogit tune, ill check it vs the stock evo maps

the tuner is string is from apexi fc pro and datalogit

its used to tag features in datalogit, ie anti lag and other junk

ignore it

here's the tune.

So this is a power fc PRO???

Thanks.

no, the term FC Pro is misleading by apexi. its covered in the powerfc faq in my sig

FC Pro is software apexi use to tune powerfc's.

the 1st generation of powerfcs were only tunable by the hand controller

the 2nd generation of powerfcs were plastered with silver "FC PRO" stickers on the side of the case and were tunable by the hand controller and software apexi made (and later sold to the public). the software is apexi fc pro and it lets you connect it to your computer / laptop.

the common misconception is that any powerfc that has the original silver "FC Pro" sticker on the side of the case meant that is an Apexi PowerFC Pro unit. this meant it contained 0km/h launch control and spark cut instead of fuel cut. The silver "FC pro" sticker acctually indiciates that you can connect it to the apexi's FC Pro software

Paul, thank you VERY MUCH mate.

I did the data init and it started great. It tooked some time for idle to settle down but it's runing great.

Map sensor scaling seems to be working fine.

No i just need to tune it.

Once again, thank you indeed.

PS: If i need more help i'll contact you :)

now that the car is working etc, you should be able to open your old tune in datalogit and do a WRITE ALL

to put the tune back to its previous unlocked state

it may be a datalogit bug where unlocking certain tunes mangles stuff

but the tune itself is OK, so if you save it, DATA INIT, write the tune back its all OK

if you have unstable idle read the PFC FAQ For self install

theres a 30 min self idle you are supposed to do when you do DATA INIT

    • Welcome Thomas! Sounds like you've made some progress. Are you able to drive it and enjoy it a bit now ? 
    • HUMVEE are fine in big open areas, but they are problematic on the street and tight areas As for reliability, some of the  US Army guys I have chatted with have said that when they were working they were fine, but, the do spend alot of time in workshops for multiple reasons, admittedly, they did get a hard time by the boys and girls who drove them I would definitely put them in the "buyer beware" category  They do look tough as nails though 
    • Just don't use ChatGPT or any other artificial stupidity for the equivalent of googling. Their demonstrated inability to discriminate reality from hallucination should be enough to make them totally untrusted. LLMs don't know anything and cannot think to even the smallest extent. They are just predictors of the next word, and that should never be confused with capability.
    • I think, given the usage model described in the OP, I'd never ever experience the wonders of the 400kW upgrade. What I really need is boost from 2000rpm and probably no more than 260-270rwkW. But I suspect that the highflow is not actually the turbo for that purpose, so I may in fact need to get a G25 or 30 or something right sized and very spooly. We shall see after it is tuned. I've had to back the boost and boost ramp off to stop the thing from pinging since the highflow went on, so I've been almost living the NA life for 9 months now! Injectors are recently in hand. AFM is in hand. Dyno is fixed. Just need to clear a queue of f**king Supras out of the way (and probably fit my new gearbox). So....some time this year? Lol.
    • For what I gather is a Sunday/summer car....braided is fine. You're not going to be left without a vehicle and you have plenty of time for inspection/maintenance. Oof. I wouldn't use them that way. They can probably handle the temperature** but the internal corrugations means that their flow characteristics are a bit shit. Lots of extra friction and pressure loss. Makes them flow like the next pipe size down. ** They are stainless, and the stainless can usually be at least something like 304L, which is pretty good at higher temperatures (unlike 316L, which I would use for a wrt/corrosive environment, but not a particularly hot environment). But the welding needs to be top notch. And even then, because you usually need at least one cone-seat end on them (because you can twist the hose and do up both ends at the same time unless one of them is a union) they can be prone to coming loose with heat cycles.
