Default Apexi Boost Controller Questions.

To start with just to let you's know i am new to all these gadgets, so just after some advice on how to properly use them. I've been looking threw the manual and im wanting to change my boost settings, pretty sure i know how to now, seems pretty straight foward, but do i do it while the engines running or just the ignition? Don't really wanna fiddle to much incase something goes BOOM xD
Anything else that you guys think might help out im all ears, wanting to learn what i can
Cheers

Which Apexi ebc do you have?
What car do you have?
what mods do you have?
Do you have a good (Autometer, Defi or hks) boost gauge?

Post this info & I'll help you.

Why do you want to play with it???

I wouldn't be going above 1.2 bar on a stock 205 bottom end, especially if you don't know what you are doing.....

1.Your stock intercooler will be limiting your efficiency.

2.You have no way of knowing if your pfc has been mapped correctly to run higher boost than what it is now, and no way of monitoring where the AFR's are going if you do.


Leave everything as the tuner set it (or get it re-tuned) or prepare to bend over and Bleed $$$.
