Hi All

i´m about to install a AVC-R later today,and i would like to have some setup hints,as what to do with the gear settings as i have a 6speed in the car.

And all the tips on the general setup of this thing.

All info would be great,
Thanks,
Skassa

 

It only supports 5 gears

When you do the gear learn set-up, I just set it to half way between the 5th and 6th values. Might play later with getting it more accurate in 5th....but this will likely lead to over boost in 6th.

Good luck, Richard

 

Thanks Richard,

I will not install it til tomorrow,i will then see how it goes.

Thanks,
Skassa

 

Sorry, gear judge section...not gear learn, which is completely different (I'm currently trying gear learn in 4th, nothing in the others)

 

I have now mounted the avc-r in the car,and i have got it to work,

I did set the gearjudge in the middle between 5th and 6th gear,
As it is now it´s set up with gearlearn in all gears,Do i have to turn it off?

I have only done a few pulls at wot,but i have set the boost to 1,2bar,but it only goes to 1,1bar,to i just need to give it time to selflearne,or do i change the dc myself????

Any info on the dc in the different gear,
Right now when it´s not making targetboost,the dutycycle is 59%,but it changes with rpm.....
Will it learn or....?

All info would be great,
Thanks,
Skassa

 

I'm trying learn in 4th gear only, but I'm also adjusting duties in small steps to help it.

The idea is to get one gear right (ie; 4th) and then adjust the DC to hit target boost in each gear. I'm finding what worked well with the 5 speed is rubbish now

Okay Thanks,

I will try to switch off the ingear selflearning,and see how it goes.

Any other inputs would be great.
Thanks

Go for a search in this forum Skassa, we already have been discussing this

PS : If you read french, I can send you the PDF guide I wrote for AVCR install. & various setting philosophies on STi 7 & 8 versions.

 

I would love to do a search,but there is no search bottum any more!!

I don´t read french,sorry

I'd map it for gears 2, 3, 4, 5 & 6 How often do you see overboost in 1st gear
1st gear I presume would then be treated as per 2nd gear which can be treated to a nice big dose of extra 'start duty'

Thanks Andy,

Yes,why haven´t i thourgt of that,this will for sure be the best,will give it a go.

Thanks,
