Don't change maps unless you have a datalogit or you have a very strong understanding of the PFC. I would hate to see someone blow their motor. THe commander does not allow you to change the base fuel map.

I would get a map that has your mods or close or else stay base until you can do some accurate A/F tuning.

I just got a PowerFC. It is used. It has a different map for a car that has totally different mods than mine. That is why I asked the question above.
Are the base map good in the instruction+maps section?
I have the following mods now with stock ECU. I am waiting for my wideband install before going to PowerFC.

Mods:
- k&n drop in filter
- bnr stage1 turbo with ported wastegate
- downpipe
- high-flow cat
- N1 Duals with both silencer on(to limit flow)
- HomeDepot wastegate and precontrol valves (tuned to 10-7-10, I think the ported wastegate made is lower boost).

Any help/insight is appreciated.

Get a Datalogit. It should interface in with your wideband (whose is it?) an allow you to throw maps onto your car, datalog, and access portions of the PFC programming that you normally would not.

Get it, you won't be sorry. Edit: plus there are alot more maps on the Datalogit yahoo groups in DAT format (for the Datalogit, of course) that you'll be able to look at.

So if the map is based on the same mods, is it ok to start with that?

Yes, but again BE CAREFUL and study the map. Until you dyno with wideband you will not know for sure how that map fits your car.

2 cars witht he exact same mods can have some different settings....remember every engine is unique in some way and so will the maps.

Other maps are guidelines only to get you going.

What is the site for the datalogit? Where do you sign up?
Thanks for the help!

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Datalogit-FD3S/ but you need to be a member to access it and membership is by invitation only. If you own a Datalogit there should have been instructions on who to email to get invited.
