are you running in the psi or bar setting?
What are your settings? and desired boost. Don't have this unit on my civic, but I have it on my 7 and I may be able to help

to my knowledge there is no such function on the profec b. That's only on the profec e-01, blitz sbc, and avc-r.

n/m i got confused between "set boost" and "start boost". Whatd you guys put for "start boost"? My set boost for my low settings is at 32 and for high its at 40%.

Those settings are way too high. Try this for your low setting:

SET: 16%
GAIN: 10%
SET GAIN (START BOOST): 4.5 psi

16% of your t3's output is roughly 4.5 psi and those two settings need to match.

thanks guys...that was a lot of help. Hey dober...for my low boost settings, i'm aiming for about 6 psi. That's probably why my settings are so much higher than yours. I didn't know that the start boost setting was what boost you wanted. Thanks. I'll let you guys know what happends.

Also. Does this ever happen to you guys. Let's say i'm aiming for .4 bar. I hit .41 bar for a short bit around 4500 rpm but it drops down to like .37-.38. ?

Yes that happens to me. Mess with the Limiter setting.

to reduce that just reduce your gain slightly. That would be called a spike.

damn this thing freakin sux! I'm aiming for 6psi. 25% and 24psi should be 6psi so i set the boost at 25%. I set gain at around 13%. set gain at .41 bar. I do a pull and it hits .41-42 and drops off to like .18...what the hell?

No that is not a boost spike that is the LIMITER setting. Bro you need to adjust the limiter setting or else when it hits .41 it will drop the percetage specified by the setting.

LIMITER not WARNING read the manual it's in there.

If it isn't hitting the warning then the limiter wont be the cause of it. Adjust the GAIN up 2% at a time until it stabilizes.

what is your warning set at? That can also be a cause for the sudden ramp down although it's more likely the limiter.
