Need help with my Apexi AVC-R please!!!

[pinegreen14]

So I've recently just purchased my first s14, it came with a few bits and bobs already fitted as you'd expect... But one thing that has been fitted was a apexi avc-r boost controller but it has not been plumbed in completely!

As it stands right now, it reads the injector duty, Rpm and speed! But that's it... I would like to set it all up properly but am unsure of what is needed in order to show boost!

Has anyone fitted one before, all help would be greatly appreciated!

First things first, down load the manual from the Apexi site. Was the boost pressure sensor fitted? If so, where is it and is wired in correctly?
From memory there was something about choosing injector duty over something, I remember opting not to wire it for injector duty as the other was more important to me....but I can't remember exactly now.....

Thanks man, I'll download the manual!
Noo the boost pressure sensor has not been fitted, neither has the boost control solenoid! Not to sure about the choice on injector duty or the other thing, but i don't really fancy changing that now as it has already been wired in.k

Try this yes it's for an RB but its essentially the same.

I fitted my AVC-R using a few thread on this forum and also this link proved very useful

Just looked up the manual, you had the option of wiring the AVCR to monitor RPM or else injector duty. So yours is wired in for injector duty. This does not affect the boost monitoring but may limit what you can set. As normally you can set boost and gain levels per certain RPMs. You will need to wire in the boost solenoid, boost pressure sensor. The pressure sensor normally should be fitted with an inline airfilter.

For reference this is how mine was set up. Stage 1a car with 1 bar and 1.1 bar settings.
