help with fuel cut and boost settings

Hi, I just read in the PowerFC manual that if you go above 0.25 bar above the perset boost level, it will fuel cut, my question is that what is the preset boost level and can I get rid of the fuel cut all together?
Is the preset boost level the middle of the screen in the boost control screen (the manual says its the "set boost level")? what is the number to the right of those, the base duty cycle right? Is this what I change to adjust the boost levels?

I dont understand why there is a "set boost level" and a "Base duty" setting in the boost control screen, what do they both do? which do I adjust to change boost levels?

also, what does the primary (PR) and secondary (SC) settings do and why are there 2 settings(1 and 2?) does this have to do with some kind of self learning function in the powerfc?


also, what controls boost levels in a non-seq conversion? Right now I have the wastegate solenoids vaccum lines capped and I have the wastegate eletrical connector plugged in to the precontrol solenoid.

skunks, all you have to do to adjust the boost is change the primary and secondary pressure ratings on the first setting. You can set up the second setting as well as it is simply a preset. I use one setting for normal driving and set up the second one for a few pounds more boost when racing... I would only decrease the duty cycle if you are running dp, cb and mp as this will help the boost creep problem.. My understanding of the duty cycle is somewhat vauge, so do some research before adjusting the duty cycles.... I am not sure of how the nonsequential conversion affects these settings either...
