Exclamation Where to install my power- FC purchased from Japan?

Recently, I HAVE bought the POWER FC FOR MY 93 FD, and the FC is tuned by feed in japan, and it came with the fd commander as well, and I dont' know where is the best place to install it becoz i don't trust ppl who don't know RX-7, so any help? and i want to know how can i set the FC and any particular things that i have to be careful about? any suggestion? and my car is not realli boosted, bcoz i only mod. some parts, :the trust exhaust, HKS twin power, feed pulley, hks twin air filter, hks front mount, toyo radiator, most of my works are just for cooling, not too much HP gained, so any good suggestion, I have problem with my FD, the only thing is when the fans turn on, the RMP starts creep, up and down if the car ran in hot condition.

thanks

Why not install it yourself?

Just disconnect the batter, pull the stock ecu, plug in the PFC, reassemble everything.

Since you said it was tuned by Feed in Japan, we would assume it was tuned for your mods. Even a stock map would work OK for your engine for stock boost levels.

i dont think its a good idea to install the ecu on your car with another cars map loaded. i just installed mine but i was told to look a pfc pinout photo to remove wires frorm the harnes in order for it to work right with my car. but im not gonna claim to know everything about the ecu. im sure some of the guys on the forum could help you thoguh.
