ECU wire & pin color/locations for AVC-R

Featured Replies

Installing a APEXi super AVC-R and was wondering if you guy had any diagrams that show pin location for the stock ECU. Anythin would be a great help thanks

Not sure. I think subarutex has one of those installed. But a AfC is differant than a AVC. The AFC stand for Air Flow Converter and is used for air/fuel managment. AVC stands for actuator Valve controller and is used for boost controll.

ahh so your doing what i just did with a saab apc unit..

but mine does not interface with the ecu

but dam does it make a difference :)

 

i need to get a intercooler before i go and readjusting the apc for more boost

i would suggest you do the same ..unless of course you have a intercooler already

Have fun. And yes, the SAFC works good on our cars.

 

Let me know how the AVCR goes. I'm looking at picking one up too. But $400 (used, $600 is retail i think) is a bit of change to throw down.

 

How much did you get yours for?

I was lucky to pick this one up for $150. I was originally on ebay but sence the guy ended up living two blocks away he ended it early and gave me a good deal. Thanks to by the way. I will be installing an older apexi afc-r could you give me any info to make the install easier?

I have an older one too. I have the wiring instructions for it if you need. I really didn't have a problem with it on install. Just take your time!

 

When you get a chance we need to get together.

 

Oh... still looking for exhaust? PM me:brow:
