boost problem
 
hey guys.
I'm having few problems(?) since i installed PFC on my car.
It hesitates little bit when I start the car. like it idles really low when i turn my car on and hesitates there for less than 2 sec, and gets normal ideling.
also, for the boost, It doesn't go any higher than 0.5 bar.
I might have to get a apexi or greddy boost kit for this cuz it might be my solenoid problem.
what do you guys think?

did you do the idle learn process?

i had the same problem, after i did idle learn. it eventually fixed itself the next day magically.... after i tightened the throttle body elbow and intercooler pipes (stock) make sure everything is together perfectly.

also heard the .05bar thing = limp mode.

yes i try to raise and turn down the idle few times.
so does it fix automatically? is it a big deal?
and also what do you mean by limp mode?
is there any way that i can get my second turbo 0.9 bar peak back by manually?

when you install a new PFC there is an idle learn process that you go through. if your idle is still having probs there is alot of information here about fixing your idle. If you search some of my posts (not threads i started) you will find a thread specifically for idle adjustment.

As far as your turbo problem, its most likely something in the rats nest . either a check valve, hose, or solenoid. I recommend learning everything you can about the system and then going through everything and replacing the hoses with silicone and checking out the system.
Or if you dont have the time or patience to learn it then ditch all the hoses and go non sequential or single turbo

yes all my hoses are fine.
it's the solenoid i guess.
do you think it will be alright if i get a boost kit?
also in power fc - setting - boost.
if i adjust these levels what does it do?
thx

i don't know that a boost controller will help if its something wrong with the stock system.

Im not running the stock twins so i havent looked at the PFC setting boost, but i imagine its to increase the boost for the stock twins.
