Default Power FC
Does anyone know if we can use Power FC as a boost controller? And does the controller shows how much boost running so that I don't need a boost guage?

Yes x2

Although having a gauge is much nicer to read that the LCD display on the PFC controller.

Yes to both and don't listen to people who will tell you that you need to add a 'boost control kit' to get a pfc to control boost. It's only for skylines.

No no retune needed for boost changes under the maximum it was initially tuned for.

Listen to Ross. There isn't much about the PowerFC he doesn't know.
He was born inside the Apexi factory with a PowerFC in his hand.

Anyone knows if it needs to re-tune if a upgrade fuel pump or injectors installed?
