HKS F-CON V-Pro - Problems After Tuning

Hi! I have a 2008 Evo X GSR and we just installed an HKS EVC and the the new HKS F-CON V-Pro. It made 344whp @ 1.6psi using a Dynapack dyno with just the HKS suction kit and the Hi-power twin exhaust. Everything else are all stock. Now my problem is a lot of error codes comes out every time I push the car to it's limits, and sometimes even in normal driving. The worst is that it goes to limp mode. What do you think is the problem with the car? Or is it just a tuning issue?

take the f-con out n stick yr stock ecu back in n eliminate the codes . stock ecu is so powerful why spend the extra $ ?

i'd bet u that it is busting the limits such as airflow/tq limits n hopefully overboost wont come later on.

I'm Fcon tuner. And Fcon is in my car also. All you have to do is to disable all that codes in the stock ECU. It has to be done by your tuner.

or just get AP. Fcon is a piggy back system to my knowledge, i would guess that is the main thing to get those codes

FCON isn't a piggyback.

AP is just remapping of the stock ECU

so they are wildly different things.

my advice would be to talk to your tuner.

and find a tuner that knows Stock ECU very well

I'm interested in getting the fcon. I already picked up the wiring harness but I'm looking for a tuner Before I buy the ecu. Can you tune my car and where are you located?
