Check out the Engine Management section of the forum. There's an entire subsection dedicated to the Power FC: https://www.rx7club.com/power-fc-forum-47/.

Simply increasing the boost w/o adjust fuel maps and monitoring injector duty is a quick recipe for running lean and blowing the motor.

Commander Pro Software (First Post)

Did you ever find information on how to adjust the settings using the commander?
If so where did you find it?

I just got the Commander Pro Software last week and am trying to figure out how to use it. I installed a second Supra fuel pump, 1200 cc and 2400 cc injectors over the winter and now I'm dumping fuel at idle like crazy with an AFR of 10.2. Smokes like a freight train. (I had many other mods already done with an engine re-build and then had it dyno tuned but that was in another state)

I find that not many (in this case none) want to give up the super secret science/art of tuning. Did you have any better luck?

Link to Power FC sub-forum where you can search and read to your heart's content:
https://www.rx7club.com/forumdisplay.php?f=47
Read this sticky FAQ thread:
https://www.rx7club.com/power-fc-forum-47/new-version-powerfc-faq-573647/

1200cc primaries are huge. People have issues trying to get 850cc primaries to work.

PM cewrx7r1 for tuning notes for rotary engines

Do get familiar with the forum's Search feature to research tuning. Also check out the 3rd gen FAQ where there are some good archived links. There is also a good fuel system calculator and threads in there.

2nd Post

Does anybody have the lag times on Lucas 1200 cc injectors. I can't find anything on the manufacturer on the internet. Is Lucas the name of the manufacturer?

I can not get the idle right. It's best if I put the lag time at -3.00 but I see that the RC Engineering lag time is 2.00. That would put my correction lag time to 1.27ms but that is flooding my engine and it stalls after a few seconds.
