Lightbulb Post your HKS F-CON setting

Hi all,

I thought I'd start a new thread on FCON settings since the questions and answers seems too scattered for any logical use:

My mods are:

Intake
Downpipe
Hi Flow Cat
Exhaust
Boost controller set at 12/13 psi

I'm currently at setting 3 however I'm running way too rich. I dynoed at 280 rwhp with a A/F ratio around 9-10.

Hopefully someone will answer you. I'm trying to get my hands on a GCC so I don't have to go lower than what I'm at.

I'm going to try an experiment though by dynoing the car within the next two weeks at setting 2 to see the difference between the power and A/F ratio.

Wish me that I DON'T pop my engine

Every engine is different, even with identical models and mods.
The FD is even more sensitive to this due to the MAP sensor based load stock ECU.
I hope you don't think running the same adjustment as someone else with similar mods is going to be good for you.
You really need a wide-band and/or dyno time to adjust this for your needs.
