Actually i can hang w/ 5spds. now

If i just stomp on it i usually can't b.c of the low torque that we lost but if i torque break i get pretty good launches and win races

After your done with all the boltons get a VAFC. Thats were I felt the biggest gains.

kenchan · 01-29-2002, 12:31 PM

yep, VAFC is very important. i use it and never regret having it.

Ludicris99 · 01-29-2002, 12:35 PM

but i dont plan on getting headers cause everyone tells me ill feel no significant gains....should i still get the VAFC?????or is it not worth it?

Yep u should get it

Buy it from that guy that is selling them for $225 or try www.groupbuycenter.com $300 shipped but more reliable

i don't know my 1/4 time yet... maybe cuz I never got the chance to test it...

but I can tell you that with my type-s intake, header, exhaust, and pulleys... my 0-60 time is 7.31... stock was like.. 8.6-8.8... these were times recorded on a GTech Pro on the same road.. so... yeah...

Yeah u should if the right deal comes along........

Even if u don't have all the mods, u can still use the VAFC to keep track of exactly what the true RPMs that ur running at, and also set ur VTEC crossover to ur desires.........

As for the headers, u should get it as well, even minor mods will help out cuz the VAFC will work best with much more mods.......

latez..........

One more thing, remember to get ur tuning done AFTER all the mods that u are going for...... then and only then will u use ur VAFC at it's best.......

Oh yeah another thing, keep in mind that the VAFC does void ur warranty so I wouldn't try to tune it urself cuz if anything goes wrong then it'll be ur fault..........

Ludicris99 · 02-01-2002, 09:31 AM

thanks......i guess im getting the vafc when it comes along....

easy

How did you all tune your VAFC? Did you dyno several times? I'd get one, but I still don't know who would tune it, and I am not near a dyno. I still need to get my fuel pressure regulator tuned... as well as purchase cam gears and a header.
