Guys,

I have a 33 with a FMIC, 3 1/2 exhaust, POD, Apexi Power FC

I would like to know approx settings people are using in their Power FC as mine is running bad atm... At about 4-5grand under full lead will start surging and exhaust popping noise.

Only running 8 psi atm...

Settings under:

Ign Map

Inj Map

AirFlow

Injector

Boost

Acceler.

Ign/Inj

Cranking

Wtr Temp

Rev/Idle

Now i know these may not work the same as your car thats been tuned, but hopefully will run better than the current settings..

Any help would be great, thanks...

I am going to get it tuned in just under a month, but till then would like to know some settings...

ok, well, when I was in the same boat as you, I ran 11psi and the car ran fine. Maybe the extra boost helped the car lean out a little and run better.

I had 0 knock, so I'd suggest gapping your plugs, and gonig for a drive and watching your knock levels. If it starts knocking, wind the bost back 1 psi slowly till it stops or is under 20% knock.

Be very careful thought, if it knocks, BACK OFF the f**king throttle. Adjust the boost right away.

But the best thing, get it to a tuner asap. I did, and now I am running 210rwkw, as opposed to 140rwkw with the standard pfc maps.

Standard pfc maps at 13psi gave 160rwkw. Not bad I say.

if your getting a bad run or surge then watch the knock and turn the boost down till you get it tuned or at least the afr's checked. you shouldnt need to adjust any of those settings as the defaults are fine for most cars

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
