I had it for 2 years... I like it.. The PFC is better but at the time it was pretty cool. My car is much smoother with the PFC..but the EFI box can make just as much power and has a broader knowledge base of users

yes, many people find that they come rich from PFS. Basically its to keep you safe until you can get it properly tuned. you are probably backfiring a lot and have a nice black exhaust tip!

like sidestick says, some people take out as much as 20% at idle, and many in the PT settings take some out .

my advice, make adjustments slowly over time -

DYNO DYNO DYNO. Take you car to a dyno with a wideband, and make your adjustments there. The cockpit of an RX-7 can be a busy place, no place to be watching the cars gauges, your PFS readout and your rearview for cops. I tend to agree, they are cautiously rich, though all cars are different. I have more mods than should be allowed by common thought, with no fuel added in.

Your results may vary!
