ok, so i jst recieved a vtec controller the other day. i was wondering if i get my p28 chipped and tuned, would that pretty much make the controller useless because vtec would kick in at 5500 instead of the 5800. i have a 00 si. but also, i havent really seen anyone use a vtec controller lately. do they really help? i know all it does is that it makes vtec kick in whenever you want, but is it worth having. i got the controller for free and i havent installed it, so im jst seeing what peoples opinions are on it.

Something like a VAFC? from Apexi?

not to be a dick but by your question, it means your not use to running one.....they can help you alot or they can royally screw you.... if your going to tune your motor i wouldn't run one... because your going to try and tweak it and mess everything up with your tune........... my opinion

em1gangsta

yea that. i got one of those from my friends wrecked si. what do yu think of them?>

em1gangsta

yea your right. see i wasn too sure about the vafc. i was going to get my motor tuned so i didnt think it ould be too useful cuz i was afraid that i would mess up my motor

EkFG

I have a VAFC laying around are they good for a street tune?

nicks-eg6

what type of vtec controller is it? is it a v-afc?

if your getting your ecu chipped out then there is no reason you should install the vtec controller it would be a waste i went throught the same problem i bought one for nothing just sell it since you got it for free

EkFG

yes a V-afc I.

em1gangsta

ok well i guess i can sell it. ehh its an apex-i vafc. so im sure i can sell it for a good price maybe. i getting my ecu chipped and tuned on chrome and then dyno tuned. so i guess this thing is a bit of a waste.

nicks-eg6

in my opinion just sale it and get your motor tuned and call it a day. thats why people tune there motor's. plus playing with a v-afc can really screw you ,if you tune it wrong

would a 94 gsr ecu be good to tune (p72 obd1) with hondata s200? Or what would you guys recommend since i was thinking of getting the "apex neo." I'm not going for major tuning right now since i'm stock, but maybe later down the road and i don't want to waste my money and regret it later.

if you plan to build your motor for anything n/a or boost, . i would get it and call it a day if you have the money to get it and tune it.

EkFG

I wouldnt recommend s300 too $. dont get me wrong its by far very good and a must have if your looking to make high power but if your in the 180-230 range then crome/ s100/s200 etc. would work wonders so would other tunning options, just my 2 pennies
