who is the best person or place to get some help on this.

If you have it plumbed in wired and ready to go, this is the procedure we use on the Supras which is pretty much the same for all cars except for the unit settings..

---

1. First start off by reseting the unit. Many have often complained that their AVC-R does not save their new settings. This is perfectly normal in some cases, and it is NOT a result of mis-wiring. Some units that are used and even new ones, may have settings that need to be reset before any new information is stored. That is why it is highly recommended that you reset your unit after it's first initial installation, regardless if it is brand new, or used.

Go under "Settings/Initialize" and press NEXT >. Confirm "YES" when prompted

"Init. All?" Now turn the ignition OFF and then back ON, and the unit should now be reset and ready to store new data.

 

2. Now adjust your car's settings. Under "Settings/Car Select", set the Cyl to 6, Spd to 4, and Thr to UP. This will allow the monitors to get proper readings.

 

3. Now pick a setting, A or B (Pretty much works like presets on a radio).

 

-For 1.2kg/cm², I had my Duty Cycle set at 72%. Not all cars are the same, the Duty Cycle may vary depending on the different mods you have on your car. Let's say that you also wanted to run 1.2kg/cm², start off with 70% as your Duty Cycle. Now run the car hard, and try to hit max boost. If the displayed boost level is below 1.2kg/cm², then RAISE the Duty Cycle (Use 1% increments). If the displayed boost level is above 1.2kg/cm² then lower the Duty Cycle. Do this 'til you get it just right...and hit 1.2kg/cm². When the AVC-R detects that a stable Duty Cycle has been obtained, you should see a *** appear in the Duty Cycle, which means the AVC-R has now learned your car's boost pattern, and is in "Self-Learning" mode.

 

Apply the same technique for all other boost settings. If you want to run lower boost, the Duty Cycle will have to be lower, and high boost it'll have to be higher, vice versa. FYI, for 0.85kg/cm², I'm using 45%. Again, Duty Cycle varies on different cars, but always try a lower Duty Cycle, and work your way up.

 

Just remember this:

 

Displayed Boost > Desired Boost: LOWER Duty Cycle

 

Displayed Boost

And you're done! Just play the Boost/Duty cycle and you'l get the hang of it.

kev, if you need a passenger to watch the controller-will txt you an evening when i can come out-you know where i am!

sounds good mate.

 

the car has been setup and has been used with the settings before i bought the car

 

ok at the moment A is set to 0.60 65%

and B is set to 1.10 45%

 

before i had it the chap on here had it set to 1bar and then put it back to 0.6bar because of some mods that was taken off it .

and what happened was a mate decided to play with the bloody thing :headvswal

and i cant remember what it was on a or b

 

it seems to go alot better on 0.60 65% on the other setting it seems to pick up then bog down .does any of this makes sense.

sounds good mate.

and also when it was on 0.60 65% im sure my external gauge said 13 psi ?? does that sound right

0.60 kg/cm is 8.5 psi

 

I would clear both A and B setting and start of with you low boost setting, say 9psi (0.63)kg cm, and 70% duty, work on the Duty until your actual boost holds at 9psi

Then go on to your high boost setting 14psi say (0.98kg cm) with duty cycle at 70% and work on that in the same way.

0.60 kg/cm is 8.5 psi
