Dropping vtec via V-AFC on p72 mugen chipped ecu ?
my vtec currently engages at 5700 RPMS, im about to install the v-afc and take it for a dynotune
now im just wondering wheres a good ball park figure to lower vtec engagement too? i have heard 5,000RPMS yeilded the best gains, what are some of your setups as im curious
thanks in advance.

If you're looking to make more midrange, the tuner can adjust the Vtec engagement along with the fuel curve to make more power earlier. It really depens on what mods you have on your motor. I only strive for top end power/speed, so all of my mods reflect that 4-1 header, Skunk2 intake mani, etc. Just talk to your tuner, and let them know what you're looking for.

all i have is i/e, hopefully after i pay some bills ill get a skunk2 IM and an ITR intake cam asap, but for now 5700 is way to high using the dual stage mani and gsr cams, i guess well start pre 5000 and work it up
thanks all
thanks all

When I first started out, I was using exh/header/filter and VAFC w/stock intake mani, I set the Vtec crossover at 5200 RPM's, right near the time that the secondaries opened up. I was using a rich computer, so I leaned it on the bottom and in the middle, kinda rich up top, and it worked very well.

from the dynos on stock gsr and skunk2 intake 1.8l blocks, seem to like 4900-5200rpm best...anything less will not produce smooth power, anything higher will produce power losses....
check out my dynos
look where they crossover

I heard a good way to tune your vtec switchover point is to do a dyno run w/ it set at like 9k, then w/ it set as low as it can go. this effectivly gives you a plot of both cams seperatly. then set the switchover to where the two plots intersect, so that you get the most power acros the band.
