Stock engagement point. Resetting VTEC engagement point without a tune is BAD.

without knowing where to place it, you could lose alot of power at the crossover point. Some motors are diffferent. My car liked it just below stock at 5000rpms. But then again i was tuning as well and not just changing the crossover.

Leave it alone until you can get on a dyno.

If you haven't modified your car at all, keep the stock vtec engagement point. Honda did a great job at tuning our cars. The vafc will still give you useful information without changing anything as far as tuning.

a chipped ecu is used for programs like Crome, Neptune, Hondata....etc

do not use a vafc in conjuction with a socketed ecu. Get it tuned properly or sell the ecu to get a stock one.
