Question Does the Power FC have more than one fuel maps

I'm looking into getting a Power FC and I want to have two diffrent boost setting(10 & 15). Can the Power FC control he fuel for these two setting? All I want is to be able to is change the boost and let the ecu do the rest. Any recommendation will help also.

you need to tune the power fc to be able to handle boost up to 1.05 kg/cm^2 (14.9 psi). In fact you should tune to 1.10 kg/cm^2 (15.6 psi) to allow for the extra headroom. once tuned, you can set the boost at any level you want form the power fc commander. visit the power fc forum for more detailed info. the apexi factory maps that come with the power fc is merely a stop-gap solution until you get your power fc tuned specifically to your mods.

You are under the mistaken impression that the PFC needs multiple fuel/ignition maps -- it doesn't. You only need one. If you boost less, the PFC will use the timing and fuel settings for that boost level. If you boost more, the PFC will use the settings for that boost level.

As Joker pointed out, the important thing is that the map is tuned up to the maximum boost you are going to run.

It sounds like you need to install a separate boost controller, so you can change it on the fly, without whipping out the commander and changing it there.

Just set the boost to 10 and 15, since the Power FC has two settings (with 1 setting for primary, and another for the secondaries).
