Power FC question.

I just received my Power FC from Japan, and low and behold, the instructions are japanese (big surprise). I ordered the new comp because I put 1600cc injectors in the car. For some reason, I cannot set the the injector size bigger than 1500cc with the commander. I have not actually run the car car yet, as it is snowing heavily and I am still waiting for my fuel pressure regulator. My question is : Can you set the injector size to 1600cc using the commander, or do you need the datalogit software to do it?

I believe you need the datalogit for 1600's. The commander will not let you go that high.

cost of the datalogit and software is 339 for a serial port connection to your laptop. The PFC price varies depending on the dealer, anywhere from 1100 to 1250 new from a seller. 850 from some guys in Japan.

www.rx7.com has both

Not only do you need the datalogit, but you will need the correct resistors for those injectors -- otherwise you may blow out the ignition drivers in the PFC.

Thanks for the info. From what Keith at kgparts says, the correct resistors are 10 ohm 10 watt resistors.
