UPDATE:

Since Kyle and I created this document, I bought a 0-25PSI pressure regulator.
I attached it to my air pump hose and it's outlet to my map sensor and other boost gauges, etc. Then I dialed in fake boost from 8 to 18PSI in one pound steps to calibrate all the gauges against each other. Faster, easier, and more acccurate then using a hand air pump and video camera.

The instructions still have the old one mentioned, but the table is the new one.

Kyle and I are willing to accept your donations for our hard work in preparing this document.

Chuck and Kyle,
Thanks for all of your hard work and support for the RX-7 community. Contributions like this have definitely clarified/expanded my knowledge base on the car, especially in something as complex as tuning. Great work on this!

Don't forget to also thank Kyle(TWOKRX7). We worked on this together.

hey Chuck, post your paypal address so people can send donations. You and Kyle have been a tremendous help with the PFC. You guys did a lot of the leg work so that it made it easier for the rest of us to start with great detailed info.
