You can't go down to 5-6, the stock w/g spring is set at 7.
The settings to control the boost are the bottom 2 on the left in the "boost" menu. Set them both to 0.5 and see what you get. Do you have a straight exhaust, or high flow cat? My straight exhaust makes it so I cannot control my boost with the PFC.

Remove the pills from your wastegate and precontrol lines and see what happens.
Or just unplug your wastegate and precontrol solenoids. Both things will cause you to run at spring pressure (7-8psi).
Another possibility is to open the restrictor pill bores up to around 3/32", but that's not really adjustable and it won't solve the issue of boost spikes. You really just need a proper boost controller.

Yeah, i know. What i was asking is IF the PFC with the Boost control kit (same solenoids has the ACVR) can control boost as good as the ACVR by itself. The solenoids are the same so it would only be a matter of processor speed??
