I need to know how you set the boost on an avc-r. i have the instructions, but i just want someone to tell me how to do it in plain english. thanks.

 

1) Set your desired boost level.
2) Set the duty cycle required to get the boost you want.


Easy.

Oh and the instructions make it very clear on what to do.

 

You do a little more than that.

first set the learn gear, and follow the instructions.
Then set the boost:
boost 1.25 (or whatever you need it at) duty 56% (ie don't change the value per rpm yet, just put the number in itself)
feedback setting 9, 8, 6, 5, 4

Do a couple long 3rd gear pulls so the computer can learn the boost (duty) curve. Once it's learned, it'll show "**" instead of "56%" in the duty cycle part, and you can change you boot to peak from there and it should be good. You can also increase the duty cyle in the lower rpms (before you get full boost) to increase spool.

You'll want a higher start duty (like 20%) in 1st gear, and lesser in the others. The percent depends on your setup and turbo.

very helpful, thanks!

 

some complicated ****, i ll jsut adjust the screw.

 

Yeah, but it works wonders. That 10-15 min you spend configuring it, will get you full boost in each gear, instand spoolup (turbo permitting), not spikes, no boost drop off, and a custom boost curve(s) to your liking (traction control, etc).

Basically, iT 0wnz Jo0!

 

(still going off)

It's kinda like when the first calculator was made. You were the guy who said "some complicated ****. I'm sticking with my abacus."
