Apexi Power Fc Commander
Courtesy of lost angel.Yep, it does alot, and does seem easy too install:The Power FC proudly stands as A'PEX's answer to the constraints and limitations associated with most piggy-back style fuel controllers. The Power FC is a complete, stand alone, total engine management system capable of handling virtually anything thrown in its path. From multiple point fuel and ignition control to VTEC engagement (Honda applications) and boost settings, the Power FC is capable of accommodating even the most demanding Performance enthusiasts.The Power FC replaces the factory ECU and controls all engine parameters.(Off road use only, no OBD-II) Installation is as easy as replacing the factory ECU.
The factory engine harness does not need to be replaced and all critical accessories such as air conditioning continue to function. By using the optional FC COMMANDER, the user can adjust and modify a wide range of settings. By changing various parameters and data, the Power FC will adapt to any of your Performance needs.
Since there is no need to upgrade ROM chips or trade in ECU's, the factory ECU can be kept by the original user.The Power FC operates off of three Main Menus. These menus are: Monitor, Setting, and ETC.In Monitor Mode, the Commander can display up to 10 parameters of data in real time. Monitor Mode can display:Engine RPMIgnition TimingVehicle SpeedAir Flow Voltage (Pressure Sensor Voltage)Injector Duty CycleBoostKnocking LevelBattery VoltageIntake Air TempWater TempIn addition, there are 4 display patterns allowing 1-8 parameters to be shown on screen at once. The data displays in numerical real time values with the option of a real time 10 second graph display. Peak Hold values and Display Hold functions only require the touch of a button. The Map Trace Mode allows Ghost Map Tracing of the Fuel Correction and Ignition Timing maps.
This allows the user to visually see what point of the map is being used in real time. The Ghost Map Trace function leaves markers on the used portions of the map for easy reference.Setting Mode allows full access to the 20x20 ignition timing and fuel correction maps. The user can adjust any portion of this map in 5x5 sections. Air flow correction values can be entered for vehicles upgrading air flow meters. Injector pulse correction menu is used when upgrading injectors on the engine. The Acceleration Enrichment Correction function improves response under hard and sudden acceleration.
The Cranking Fuel Injection menu corrects the amount of fuel when the engine is being cranked, or when the water temperature is cold. A separate Water Temp menu allows fuel correction according to water temperature.
The RPM menu allows rev limiter settings and idle RPM levels. Access menus also vary according to specialty engines. Rotary engine Power FC's accommodate leading and trailing ignition maps. Honda engines Power FC's allow for VTEC control. Complete boost control is possible by using the optional Boost Control Kit (Not necessary for vehicles that come factory Turbocharged.). Changing data is easy: just access the desired point on the map or data, and push the FC COMMANDER keys in the appropriate direction.The Power FC also comes preprogrammed with several base maps. (Currently with Japan Domestic Market Vehicle Maps.
Minor initial tuning may be required.) This makes the initial tuning process much quicker. As with all other fuel controllers, the POWER FC should be tuned on a dynomometer by a trained professional. A high grade air/ fuel ratio monitor is also recommended during tuning to ensure best results.Available Immediately!!!!!!And heres MWR's Map for the chip. Can anyone attest to what this will put out on a GT? Also, what are the main differences between the ApexI FC and the Greddy controller that MWR sells?
Are there any disadvantages to the power FC? And do you need the little controller box with the screen?thats the power FC commander. If you plan on using the base map only then no you do not need the commander or the datalogit.I do not have info on the greddy but I can tell you I bought the power FC with no regrets.groupbuy4celica has the power FC cheaper then MWR. It is expensive though. I mean 950 for the tool, 500 to repreogram. 50$ to buy a map. So if you have Intake, and if you have Intake exhaust and header, it is better to use a map that is set up for that to give you more gains?
The gains sound nice, and yea sounds like the best mod to me. But you really need to dyno it everytime you wana edit the mapping? And lets say you edited ur own map for AEM CAI, DC headers, TRD exhaust. Can someone get a full benefit from the same mapping you have if they have the same mods or does it differ from each car? And you said that you need to buy something to edit ur mapping? Doesnt that come with the ecu already or you have to buy it separately?
Sorry not familiar with anything like this and dont know shit about dynos and much about cars specs, but i do know how to read a dynoRe: Apexi Power FC for the Celica GTS - Q&AApr 2, 12:29pm. Well look at what we did. We took the base map from MWR which IMO is VERY good for what it is a 'base' map. Meaning something to start from.
We made a new map and swapped that map in and out of other cars with similar butt dyno results. However every car is different so if you are ok with the bare minimum then yeah you just trade maps and be done with it.If you want to do it right youshould take the best map, dyno it with your car and then tune it as it needs for your specific car.and yeah like I said those dynos I posted were the base maps with no extra tuning done.
And as you can see on the comparsion 2 similarly modded cars dynoed very different. Also we dynoed diff then the mwr car cause they had the injen CAI. ^^ no it wont work they make them to fit in the stock ecu harness so no ou cant even modify it. Besides the fact that its programmed different.also saying it only got 10 whp is not doing it justice.
Raised limiter, fully retunable, 20 - 30 whp in the midrange, 15 - 20 wheel torque in the midrange, launching in lift.that was withthe base maps. Lol I bet we gained quite a bit over that.also FYI I ran a 13.740 @ 101.13 with a bad 60' so yes I'd say its a worth while mod. ^^ no it wont work they make them to fit in the stock ecu harness so no ou cant even modify it.

I think it's an awesome addition and thats how i meant to portray it.and congrats on the 13.7.THAT is one heck of a feat.Re: Apexi Power FC for the Celica GTS - Q&AApr 4, 4:17pm. Let's see if anyone can help me.My friend had a WRX that was totalled. He had a apexi fc that is laying around his room.I dunno if it is the same, but he told me he thinks it goes for about 250$ (he bought the wrx used, and it came on it).Is he extremely mistaken with the price? Could it be a diff thing? Could that one be modified to fit my gts ( is it universal?)?Thank you.
I'm rick james, bitch.Anyone????lucky has already answered your question. Scroll up a bitRe: Apexi Power FC for the Celica GTS - Q&AApr 4, 9:41pm.

Then I have to get it retuned.NEXT QUESTIONDo I have to send it somewhere to get it retuned?ThANK U ALREADYRe: Apexi Power FC for the Celica GTS - Q&AApr 5, 10:46am. Whoa.13.7 dam!!! Okay im very lost on information on the power fc.I have a 2002 celica and my redline is 7800.whats the redline for the other celica's? Also they say that the 2002 celica model has a redline so it cant pass 7800.with the power fc can it still be made to redline at 7600? So if I wanted to purchase the power FC will I have to set it up myself or do I just call monkeywrench racing and will they do it for me?? If both ways.which way is better.letting them do it or doing it myself? Whats the price?

Whats the price?if you want to hold off a bit, we are concidering selling our maps preloaded on the pfc through groupbuy4celica (karnage motorsports)and they work with the 02 celicas, no need to swap the knock sensor, just drop the pfc right in and your good to go with 8600 rpm redline. I would so buy a power FC but i have an extended warranty that runs for 24000 more miles and that would void it.i see the power gains, any other reccomendations for me part wise (there's 7 or 8 cellys at my college and im tryin to sleep them all with the best of the best parts)i was thinking a fidanza flywheeli don't know about the exhaust yet i need helpa new msi ignition coilplus im runnin 50k miles i need a tune up. If you have anything you could tell me to get me to not buy the wrong parts then it would be much appreciated.vvtL-i till i dieRe: Apexi Power FC for the Celica GTS - Q&AApr 13, 2:36am.
