only got the hand controller working again 2 days ago, nothing was showing on the screen,opened it up and after 5 minutes of soldering ,hey presto

What is the norm for the knock reading, and what is the level where you go SH1T thats a bit too high... :dunno:
 
Andy Forrest reckons for a road car 40 is the highest safe level
that he would recomend.

The Apexi ECU flashes the check engine light, if it detect's high/ dangerous levels
of knock ......... this knock level is normally somewhere between 70 - 80 :shock: :shock:

Most cars run normally between 10 - 20 and you should only notice a higher
level if your driving flat out again normaly at high speeds

@lads,ye notice any difference from 95 oct and booster and using E5 on the knock reading?

Big time, when I start my car the knock usually goes straight to 5. But with E5 it goes to 1!!
Unfortunately the closest E5 station for me is 60kms away :cry:

Don't want this to be a thread hijack but what votage is your o2 sensor reading on the hand controller??
You'll find it in ETC and sensor/sw check

Poor mans antilag??
Whilst there is no official Apexi plug in Anti Lag and Datalogit Antilag is broken you can do a "poor mans antilag". This is at zero cost and is merely amusing and a bit of fun, I don't think it does any good (and might not be safe).


1. SETTING
2. IGN MAP
3. Change the top row (row P01) to be all zero's (the number 0) for IGN timing.
4. Drive around and listen to the car pop and backfire on gearchange

This is because on gear change the AFM momentarily drops its air when the throttle body closes so AFM drops into load point P01 (most times, not %100). So the result is, the engine drops to 0deg IGN timing for a split second and it pops and backfires on gearchange, race car style. This may not be safe and suitable for ceramic exhaust wheel'd turbo cars as it could cause exhaust wheel failure from heat. Logic says it should bring on boost a bit quicker but it doesn't appear to do squat. Traditional anitlag backs off timing on gearchange and dumps fuel, but keeps the throttle nailed so keep exhaust gas flowing.

Anyway try it and impress your friends. I have this applied to my car still after about a year and everything is still fine - standard turbo is still in tact etc
 
love to try it,dont know if Andy has the ignition blocked on the hand controller :dunno:
if so,back to the website to see how to unblock :lol:
 
Cork and Galway do not have it yet. I emailed Maxol directly about it and they said that it is down to development issues or something. They also said that they don't know when/if it'll be supplied in either county.
The nearest Maxol supplying E5 to cork is Michelstown.
