Base MAp + Efini y-pipe okay?
Hey everyone I plan on getting a PFC really soon and im wondering if its okay to run the base map ( intake downpipe catback) and in addition, and efini y-pipe. This is all at 12psi on the stock intercooler.
Should I lower the boost to say, 11 psi to be on the safe side?
Also I have an SBC-ID controlling boost, how do I set it up to ovveride the PFC boost settings?

You will need to verify the A/F ratios on your car. The PFC base map is pretty rich but you never know until you test your car.
With a separate boost controller, you just set it like normal. You will turn the PFC boost settings up to a point above what you are running with the controller so it won't fuel cut.

doesnt the y-pipe only add like 3 RWHP though? I mean, my thoughts were that it was totally not enough to really change anything but simply more of a reliability thing. Should I richen up the higher RPM's?

You will have to verify your A/F ratio on YOUR car to make sure it is safe. Very likely, you will be fine, but every car is different.
BTW, watch your intake temps at 12 psi with the stock intercooler. It's barely adequate at 10 psi, let alone 12.
