not really sure why ya put this in the n/a section

Nevertheless, my philosophy has become one best expounded by the principle that "anything is better than nothing" while this may also conflict with "save until you can afford to get the best and settle for none less," I think in your situation since you have nothing major a basic tune that is easily attainable on the neo would be a worthy investment. That said, the only real alternatives >IF< you are wanting the standalone route and have plans to do more, save for the greddy emanage ultimate. I think greddy is about to go under so expect some fluctuations in the price but i'd only consider the emanage ultimate if you sincerely plan to go further but want to keep your onboard diagnostics as they are.

I know a better place for the Apexi Neo...the garbage.

Save up and buy something you can really tune with and go to a dyno.

I mean what is adjusting VTEC gonna do? nothing. You think your butt dyno is gonna know if your motor is struggling for air/fuel/spark? I doubt it.

gotta disagree because I think you are getting the limited capabilities of the vafc and the latter neo mixed up:

for the op:
APEXi Super AFC NEO Engine Management - Import Tuner Magazine

Probably the best review i've read on the evolution of piggy backs

What do you mean by "easy to set up?" Wideband will be used when your tuner works with it in whatever tune route you go, but getting your own isn't necessary except for precision monitoring
