turbo tuning help.....

Ok I just got done installing everything including the management system. The management system is the XFC PCS from Dezod. After I had installed it my speedometer quit working, as well as the rpm gauge. Also my turbo is supposed to kick in at 3500rpm, and when my car reaches 3000 is tries to studder out or at least it sounds like it. so mycars not letting me go into boost. I was just wondering if anyones has ever had this problem and what it turned out to be? or sgguestions that it could be.please help if you can. thanks.

Check to make sure your tach stil works with the stock ECU and XFC unplugged. If it does, then the wiring is faulty or damaged and PCS needs to be notified immediately. If the tach and such still do not work with the XFC unplugged, then it is a problem with your car, and you need to address it.

Do not drive the car, because it sounds like it is running lean and causing it to shut down.

I just want to say one thing, I think that this is really great. One car enthuiast helping out another seriously. Good work guys. It's good to see that people still help eachother out rather then just being dissentive.

Re: turbo tuning help.....

I installed my XFC last two week ago and I had the exact same problem. It turned out that my wire harness was bad, I had to send it back, and PCS sent me another one

Re: turbo tuning help.....

Ok Everyone, The Problem Was Finally Fixed. All It Was, Was The Harness Itself. Pcs Sent Me The Wire Diagram And We Rewired It.
