sell it

you need a non fuzzy logic controller. greddy and blitz are the best for sequential usage.

but if u want to keep it and use it, works fine usually.

yes it can control your boost spike. set it to 10lbs. however, boost will fluctuate sometimes, especially around tranistion because the fuzzy logic gets confused. this is only for twin turbos now.

you can adjust the avc-r so it doesnt fluctuate, read the instructions and you will see.

ta instructions are a little baffling when it aint installed yet.

i have that 2 do yet.

if anyone has any picturs of the hoses and general installation that would be nice.

the more pics the better.

wireing isnt gonna b a problem tis just the location on the hoses that i dont understand at the mo.

ta in advance

The AVC-R is one of the more advanced boost controllers - take your time and learn it. Some people don't like it since they don't devote the time to learn it. Read the manual, do some searches and read everything you can about it. http://www.fd3s.net has a bunch of good info on installation and using it.

It will do what you want - keep your boost at 10psi. Most any boost controller can do that, actually. The AVC-R will really shine when you want fine control over your boost pattern.

Actually if setup correctly it will take out the transition. Just remember to start conservatively and move in small incriments.
