Just bought a Apexi AVC-R and am planning on fitting it this friday coming. I am fitting it into a 1995 WRX. Any help, advice or pictures of people that have them fitted etc.. would be of big help as once those ECU wires are cut i got to get it to work. Any help would be much appreciated. Plus when the Apexi is set up, what kind of settings should i be running on my 1995 WRX with the following mods

tweenierob, if you are doing one on Saturday, perhaps you could take some pictures/create a how-to?? As I see a lot of people ask how to install one.

Don't really have any install pictures.
Are you fitting the AFC-R as well ?
DP Motorsports in Warrington sorted mine out ~ so unfortunately I can't really add much
Cheers

Unfortunately the pics are quite old... sold the car in Dec 2001
Amazing piece of kit though. Ran a nice 24PSI boost
on High and 10PSI on low.

Also known as the pressure sensor. it is the sensor that reads the boost/vacumn levels, a pipe runs from the manifold or fuel reg pipe to it.

The fitting was fairly straight forward. I can take pictures if anyone is having any trouble with the fitting.
