is easy to tune with.i had xs engineering do the base tune by a list of mods i gave them.you just send it in with your list of mods and they program it in.then when i got it back ,it was almost perfect.i spent two hours on the dyno and it was perfect.you can find pics and videos herehttp://meacham.pointclark.net/TurboTypeR/index.htm.they are kinda old and need to be updated.

Have you looked through the Power FC to see what all the settings are yet? If not go ahead and start doing that. Keep us updated on your results with the Power FC

I would use the Apexi 3BAR map sensor instead of the GM...it plugs right into the PFC ECU, and the you just change the map sensor to option 4 within the program.

its expensive, but there's less problems and its completely plug and play.

sorry for the huge pics....

Q: all you need is the wiring from the map sensor to the power fc right. Or are you talking about something different. I would think that it should come with it all but thats an ASSumption

The Apex map sensor is the same Nippon Denso sensor used by Integral gauges. I got mine for $150.

geeze...that seems quite expensive??

Are these already prepped for 3-bar? Is it in the wiring that makes it a 3-bar??
