i'm wondering if you can run a stock ecu with a vafc, to be tuned to 400hp, and the car still be able to be driven on the street? no rough idles, or will it be to rich at normal operating speeds?

 

yes.

Would it be smart??

 

trying to get my hatch on the road on a budget. it looks slim on getting a stand- alone, and i already have the vafc hooked up.

 

Nice!!!

 

yes it can be done but i have not seen anyone try this. Im not saying nobody out there hasn't done it.

 

WHY ??????

 

There are free ROM editors you know. Here are two of them.

TurboEDIT... http://www.turboedit.org
Uberdata... http://www.ecimulti.org/uberdata/

 

Id rather have my carsit a few extra weeks then blow up my motor, i wouldnt run teh afc hack again ever even on a 200whp car, let alone 400

what kind of standalone on a budget( say $800) could i get and it meet what i'm looking for.

Did you not read my previous post? All these free ROM editors are stand alone systems. You would be able do get a wideband o2 and everything else you need to chip your ECU and tune your car for under $800 easily.
