$100 is a good deal, worth it is the real question.

A VAFC (I,II, or Neo) is basically just a hack tune. I got one for free a few years ago and i hooked it up just to read digital RPM, MAP pressure, etc.. etc.. Rather than trying to use it to "tune" my car or move my VTEC all around which is the exact opposite of what you want to do.

If you want something fancy and cool to look at, get it and use it like i did. Save yourself the headache though, get tuning software and hit up your local shop for a real tune.

VAFC is ~10 yr old technology... chip an obd1 ecu and get a reliable tune

Agreed. All its really good for is for readouts and eye candy.

DO NOT use it to, in any way, tune your car. You'll most likely just screw something up.

well if your car is tuned and working properly and you wanna see how everything is working on the motor go for it

Sell it, buy some decent gauges and chip your ECU to make any adjustments.
