May need some help here. Can someone tell me what scramble mode is? My understanding is that scramble mode is used when you want to go higher than the boost you set. For eg. if high boost is set to 1.4 bar and you want to increase it to 1.5 on a spirited drive, you then set the increase at 0.1 bar and when scramble mode is activated, the boost level is actually set to 1.5bar. Did I get it right? Which means that arguably, you can set 3 boost settings on the EVC V?

Honestly....I've never messed with the scramble option. I've messed with the offset and the other stuff, but I never really understood the scramble either so I just left it alone.
In the manual, it says to set the warning anywhere from 1-1.5 psi higher than what you are wanting to run. I generally run 20.5-21 psi on my car so my warning is set at 22psi.
Before I first read that, I set my warning to what I wanted to run and the warning would always go off and kick the boost down. I don't have that problem now.

I think the offest is where you can use the stepping motor to spool the turboup a little faster. In the manual, HKS suggests you run it on 100. I think I played with mine and tied a few setting and 100 felt the best.
Correct me if I'm wrong guys....

Did you pick up the US spec with adjustable offset as well?
