You should have got some base maps pre-programmed in it. Did you buy it new?

the PFC has a base map that should be perfect for your mods. you should retune when you get larger secondary injectors.....

be careful....check the maps prior to boosting your car after the install..

my supposed virgin pfc had a mixture of base mod and base stock maps between ignition and fuel...

some power FCs come with a lean spot on the tranisition period between 1st and 2nd turbo, that is if you are still runing the sequentials, either way check that spot around 4300-4600rpms, you could potentially blow your motor if you have this lean spot...

The PFC with the base map that comes in it will be fine for your mods. Dont listen to SR, they are a rip off and thier "dyno tuned" maps are nothing short of a pile of gimic **** to get people to buy thier stuff.



Between what I personally know about SR and what I've heard about SR I wouldnt buy a damn thing from them. I just dont trust them.
