Power fc vs possum link


jimme18

Recommended Posts

Okay okay my budget can not include a g4 so I\'m thinking of using possum link or apexi fc. Car will be rebuilt, injectors (yellow tip is planned but could go biggerYeah come watch boxing tonight with the boys at mine), walbra fuel pump, front mount, vf22 or rebuilt larger core. I have been learning about limitations of possum link. How about power fc?

You could even track down a g3 and get the firmware updated to g4?

I used a powerFC on my last rex. Running yellows with orange AFM and vf30 turbo with heaps of other mods

Not a bad little unit (can use the controller for real time readings)

I THINK there is a powerFC model which will ditch the AFM (cant remember)

Power FC has D-jetro and L-jetro models for AFM or MAP

I forget which is which but google will tell you which does what

The AFM one will still be fine, just use the built-in option for upgrade to 300ZX AFM and it no longer is a power bottleneck anyway

People get pretty hung up on ECU choice, the PFC is pretty dated but they\'re also idiot proof and being a direct plugin has benefits come resale time too. Don\'t need to be running the latest motec supercar spec ECU when it\'s not being asked to provide 8 channels worth of aux outputs and stuff - got to toss up if $3k worth of ECU and tune is worth the trouble on a $6k street car I spose

Boons comment has a lot of merit too - look at thorpys coupe (215kW with top mount interheater and stock ECU) for an example, stock ECU seems to cope well with being pushed a bit

Hi I don\'t know much about the difference between computers but I have a

Wrx ra which has yellows vf22 fmic and when my my afm was playing up I decided

To get a possum link because it wasn\'t going to cost too much more than a new afm and being tuneable for future mods like exhaust etc.

Got it installed and tuned at Dyno power tga and it runs good starts and idles well with

16 pounds boost and 200kw

So yeah might not be the flashest but I\'m happy with it for the costs :)

      Afternoon team,
      im new to the group first time posting. Im hoping some body can help me get my launch control all dialled in on my link g4x. Ive had the computer and car all tuned from chris at prestige awesome knowlegable guy super happy with the results but now im wanting to get my launch/anti lag all dialled in. Ive been reading multiple different forums etc all with different conflicking information which has made me nervious with what do i listen to this or that if you get what i mean. Now ive started to make myself familiar with my PClink software etc the past few weeks and im eager to learn how to do minor setups or tweaks etc so im not relieing on my tuner so much and obviously saving myself abit hurt in the back pocket. 
      Now back to the question at hand.... Im wondering if theres and one who could please share there knowledge and wisdom with setting all my values, timing, fuel etc when i have launch control armed and engaged, or even a launch tune file they can possibly send me to load onto my tune. Ive figured out the setup of my digital inputs turning launch control on etc and its obvisously on its pre set factory settings. It engages but doesnt sound the greatest or as angry as it should i feel. Hence reaching out to you good buggers. 
       
      Cheers in advance for any info and help yous maybe able to give me.
       
      Cheers Shaun
