Does anyone have a BAR - PSI formula and back. I know that 1 BAR is 14.7 PSI, but that's it. LOL

The Power FC really smoothed out my transition. The boost drop that the stock ecu does was gone, so the second turbo came on much smoother. This is a GOOD THING!

i noticed this too. i installed my PFC and it seemed as if it helped the transtition/second turbo





of course i finally installed my boost guage a couple days prior to the PFC, so i had something to look at to measure the pattern

I tested my precontrol and it's fine, the reason I thought something was wrong, is

cause I was in a friends FD and he has the same setup as I and you could really hear and feel the transition,unlike mine. I guess mine is just smoother, I'll keep a closer look at the boost gauge next time. At least I got a good look at the rat's nest and all the hoses look new and intact.

does the PFC read in kg/cm^2, like the AVC-R?



if it does, 14.225 psi = 1 kg/cm^2

a little bit lower than a bar

Yes, the PFC reads in kg/cm^2...not bar. So .90 kg/cm^2=12.8lbs.
