All come with the 5.08 base map for a few mods.
For a custom map, you will have to pay them more and give your mods.
Even so, it will have to be tuned for best results.

Power FC's all come preloaded with base maps for the particular car they are manufactured for as the are vehicle specific. If you have a car with more mods then the base map is designed for we will load a better map on for you at no cost when purchasing a PFC from us. Even these maps will need to be tuned to your specific vehicle as no one can give you a perfect map for your exact car without actually tuning it in person.

The N3A7 has the same connectors as the USDM ECU's which means that you would need the 93-95 PFC 414BZ004 http://banzai-racing.com/store/93-95...APEXi_pfc.html

i am aware of the date the last post on here was made. this is the most relevant place to post my question without making another thread...

does anyone have the file for the map that comes with the pfc. i bought mine used and would like to load that map to clear out whatever the previous owner had.

You have to reinitialize the PFC which replaces the stock saved map on the PFC. This map cannot be deleted fyi. Make sure to READ then SAVE your current map before wiping it clean.

"To reinitialize a PFC, you'll need a Commander (the hand held unit)
Plug the PFC in, connect the commander, turn the ignition on but don't start the car. On the commander locate the ETC menu & press NEXT. Go to ALL DATA INIT, press NEXT, highlight YES, press NEXT, turn the ignition off. Wait a few minutes, turn the car back on and you have the base map. Do a sensor check etc., then start it up!" - from Natey on another thread.

With Datalogit it's under the tools or setup I believe on the top toolbar. I'm at work so going off memory.
