Power FC Help...

I'm running the D-Jetro in my Evo and I am having problems with my idle. Only when the car is sitting still, in reverse, or getting into gear the lumpy idel occurs, sometimes stalling. When I'm on the gas it's awesome and works great... As far as I know It almost sounds like a have a big cam, but I still have my stock cams in. I also only have 307ft/lb with 383whp which seems like a low torque number to me, but I pretty sure it's due to not having cams and running on VERY safe AF's and timing. It was dyno tuned (not sure for how long) and only with the commander.

Apexi either needs to have someone that will trouble shoot, or give out their software so that these things can be properly tuned. I really like this system but for other buyers beware because if you live on the east coast you’re screwed because NOBODY has their software. Now California and Texas is a different story because there are several shops (XS engineering, etc.) that are "authorized" this software. Now only if we can get someone around the east cost that can offer their tuning would be awesome. But that looks unlikely due to Apexi being selective with whom they give the most important piece to their product... the software.

If anybody can help me out, knows someone with experience with the PFC (Silver Surfer), or has an idea of what I/we should do please post here.
Thanks

I sent your post to the guys in Austin that have tuned 4 or 5 of the Power FCs in EVOs. They usually won't respond but we'll see what happens. The are leary about giving advice over the phone or internet.
