Hi folks i'm running an apexi power fc and apexi avcr. I turned the avcr off to try and find cause of my overboost issue , however because i did that the cel came on and no i cant put it out using connecters under dash and was wondering if i need the daralogic kit to switch it off Any inpit would be much appreciated cheers

In very basic terms the boost control kit on/off tells the powerfc if it is controlling the boost or not. Varying years this will be clicked or in licked just to aid confusion lol

If it was fine and you turned the avcr off (switched power off or to the off boost setting), the light shouldn't come on as the powerfc is only aware it is or isn't controlling the boost.

Firstly in logging what is highlighted red? This is what is causing the engine light. No. Connectors under the dash work with powerfc.

If you are on the commander check in "sensor/sw check" the fault will be highlighted.

As an aside what's the boost issue?

Hi bud thanks for replying. The boost issue was what i think is overboosting as i think i was hitting fuel cut . As for the cel it came on and stayed on when i switched boost control off at commander. I always noticed a slight chatter from apexi boost solenoid but i was getting alot of chatter when i floored it before hitting fuel cut thats why i switched it off to see if it would overboost from wastegate. Thanks
I don't know if a sensors away as I don't know what the values should be to compare with my sw/sensor check

its a version 2 and on the handheld its in green writing so nothing highlighted in red cheers

So you don't have data logit so nothing will be red. Data logit is the laptop based tuning software.

You haven't turned the boost control off you have told it you are using the ecu to control the boost not the avcr and it has error end because it can't control the boost as it's all plumbed to the avcr. So change that back. Would seriously advise not changing stuff without knowing what you are doing.

What boost is it mapped to?

Yes I haven't got datalogic and i changed setting after advice on typera.com but as soon as i seen the cel coming on i switched it back and car wasn't driven so hopefully no damage done
not sure what my target boost is set at but its usually between 1.2 and 1.3 when i floor it cheers

With the boost control kit seitched for avcr you wont have a boost cut so I would suggest its a coilpack misfire or something like that

Thats specific to v1/2 btw

I upgraded to newage coilpacks last year Could this be an issue with timing?

Have they been working okay?

Double check your ignitir bypass wiring, maybe worth checking plugs.

If all is okay set avcr to OFF boost setting. From memory left arrow on boost on the top screen turns it off. This will be actuator pressure only. See how it drives.

Perfect.

Hi bud. A few boost leaks but it was the fuel pump When on boost it was running lean hence the cel. Cheers
