UPDATE:

Since Kyle and I created this document, I bought a 0-25PSI pressure regulator.
I attached it to my air pump hose and it's outlet to my map sensor and other boost gauges, etc. Then I dialed in fake boost from 8 to 18PSI in one pound steps to calibrate all the gauges against each other. Faster, easier, and more acccurate then using a hand air pump and video camera.

The instructions still have the old one mentioned, but the table is the new one.

Kyle and I are willing to accept your donations for our hard work in preparing this document.

Chuck and Kyle,
Thanks for all of your hard work and support for the RX-7 community. Contributions like this have definitely clarified/expanded my knowledge base on the car, especially in something as complex as tuning. Great work on this!

I have a newer version but it is bigger than what was posted here.

PM me at cewrx7r1@yahoo.com for a copy.

Don't forget to also thank Kyle(TWOKRX7). We worked on this together.

hey Chuck, post your paypal address so people can send donations. You and Kyle have been a tremendous help with the PFC. You guys did a lot of the leg work so that it made it easier for the rest of us to start with great detailed info.
