ok call me a ****** idiot whatever ,but i need help with the boost gauge on the pfc .i'm getting bout .558 or .58 its kinda hard to tell at 100 mph!lol what does that convert over to ?

next ? what is a normal temp reading for the commander?

Stay tuned i'm sure i'll be back with more dumb *** questions!!thanks

 

I think the PFC reads in kg/cm^2. Multiply by 14.22 to get psi. 0.58 * 14.22 = 8.2476 psi. Sounds like your boost is low if that is the peak value. Might be a PowerFC duty cycle setting issue, or a physical problem with the wastegate control system plumbing, etc.

You can use the peak hold feature to keep your peak boost in memory for viewing after a run. You can also use the graph mode of the display for seeing the basic shape of the boost curve. Both of those features can be useful for analysis.

If you mean air temp, it probably varies a bit from car to car. 30-40C seems to be the normal range for cars with upgraded ICs. I am not sure what people see with the stock IC. The air temp sensor is pretty slow to react, so keep that in mind when analyzing the readings. Heat soak from sitting still with the engine running will raise the intake temps on most cars.

no, water temp ?

 

It has water temps too. Good replies Max. In monitor mode you can change which ones you want shown when you are viewing 1 channel, 2 channels, 4 channels, or 8. Did you get a manual with the PFC? As far as water temps. Cruising, light load will be in the mid 80 degrees celsius, but that depends on the radiator you have, aluminum ones will drop it a degree to two. What's your settings in the settings section under boost?

1. pri - 75 54
sec 70 58
2. pri 85 58
sec 80 62

It will be in that format. Make sure you don't have a boost leak in the plumbing from the ypipe connector then the according hoses going to and from the IC.

1.Pr .80 @ 56%
Sc .70 @ 64%
2.Pr .90 @ 62%
Sc .80 @ 70%
\this is what it set @.i will say that when the secondary comes on it drops alot of power .it used to not feel so drastic?can i change to the higher boosts{#2} on the pfc ?
