| Use C-4 for Cylinder Setting. Set the Speed Cancel to 180KPH. |

| hi joshua i have mine set at 107% tyre size and seems to be spot on for 245/40/18s probably trial and error depending on your tyre size also for revs ..have it set on 4cyl and 4p good luck |

| nah i brought it second hand from neil. he sent a wiring diagram but it turns out that it was wrong and neil wasn't sure cause it'd been a while since he installed it. but its all good i figured it out. where it said the blue and brown were for the speed really was the pink and purple. easy as to fix up. thanks |

| I don't know about the Apexi II, but with the version 1 I use these settings. 1. RPM 2. Speed 3. C-4 4. P-4 5. 7000 6. 180 7. Tyre Adjustment 8. 108 - this one is critical to speed cut. The wiring diagrams are also wrong for the Version 1 model, again I don't know about V2. The Apexi makes the ECU think that the car has not exceeded 180kph which is how it avoids the speed cut. The unfortunate side effect is that the ECU then also doesn't know when to change to O/D if your foot is to the floor. Lifting off a tad will get the gears to change. It's more of an inconvenience than a problem. From memory, 3rd gear will go to approx 190kph. so it's only when you go over that speed that you really need 4th anyway. |

| Murray, which version RSM? I posted the settings for version 1 just two posts above yours. It should keep the settings unless you have wired it wrong. |
