Also use another channel if the person talking to you sounds like a lot of static.

Do you have cams or any mods that actually need a vtec controller? If not put the bling bling away until you need it.

Lol..I just remembered that Vtech was a phone.

Look man, what are you mods? Do you have cams? Skunk2IM?
There is no setting for every car, they are all different and the only way to tune a Vafc is to take your car to the dyno. Also I don't think you really need it until you at least have the mods I mentioned.

A Vafc is designed to help you get maximiun hp out of your mods (i.e. cams). It helps you with your a/f ratio as well. You can change your vtec x-over, which I wouldn't recomend unless you need to. Which you will when you get cams, and/or an intake manifold.

I have a Vafc on the dinner table right now thats in no hurry to be installed until I purchase my Skunk2 cams and cam gears.

Although the people here are kinda being dicks, but its obvious if he can't spell it right. He doesn't know what the hell it is, what it does, how it does it... therefore any educated response will only spark additional questions from him. All of which are most likely beaten to death in this forum. So he should search, and learn everything he can from this forum first before asking a question.

VTEC crossover point should really be 5200 with stock cams, not 4500 like the stock ECU has it set to work at. Plus you can still tweak your A/F ratio on your stock setup and correct a lean/rich condition with it, so I wouldn't say something like a VAFC or a VTEC controller would be useless for a stock setup, just not as applicable as a setup with different cams, camgears, different IM, bigger tb, etc etc, you know the drill. Point being, I don't think a VTEC controller or a VAFC is "bling". It does serve a purpose either way, just works better with mods.

It's "bling" if the person buying/installing it has no intention of taking it to a dyno for proper tuning. But as you said, it does have a purpose if used correctly.

To find the best settings you will have to dyno tune it.

if you pick up a cheap Wideband 02 you can do some street tuning.

otherwise it's onto the dyno.
