im just curious if a vafc would help me out at all.
heres my current setup:

b16a
skunk 2 Cat-Back Exhaust
skunk 2 stage 2 cams (untuned)
skunk 2 valves and springs
jasma 4-2-1 header
msd ignition w/ blaster 3 coil and launch control
ctr intake manifold
ctr throttle body
short ram intake
buddy club cam gears
act 4 puck unsprung clutch
p28 chipped w/ skunk 2 program

the car is not tuned, and its running really rich right now.

would getting a vafc help at all?

 

definately.. but get it tuned.

 

Yes..... only a dyno would tell though but it would help you dramatically.

 

yes get it and lean out your fuel on a dyno, but only a dyno will help u , dont set it your self.

 

help dramatically to get the car dyno tuned, or help dramatically to get a vafc?

i know for damn sure i need to get some dyno time in, these cams have way more potential then ive been shown.

ah, gotcha.

 

u use a vafc to tune your car on a dyno, u cant tune it unless u have an air fuel control, u can purchase other air fuel items. but u need somthing like that.

 

Yes get the vafc and tune it at the dyno

 

hrmm, whats a fair price for a vafc-ii?

i get a discount from their, but nothing huge. it will be my gf buying it for me, for xmas, so its gotta be from a store. anyone know some good places to purchase the vafc's?

 

With all that gear in your car you need something but if you want to truely get the most out of it all I would go with a Hondata or Uberdata. VAFC is the MINIMUM you'll need to get it to work properly, but if you want to make real power go with a setup like I mentioned, you won't regret it.

 

i wouldnt pay more than 200 for a new vafc or almost new

 

wheres a good place to purchase one?

 

hear if the person is legit, or ebay

 

you can usually find them used for around $150-$200.

 

definately get one

 

how could you have all that crap on your car and not have an engine management system? or at least a piggyback. of course the vafc will help

The vafc2 is more tunable(50 RPM increments vs the 100 RPM in the original VAFC)

you can tune accel and decel maps for both hi and low cam

Either way get one and get it tuned, or else your motor is just going to waste.


EDIT: i got my vafc2 from inlinefour.com holiday special 304$ shipped, I dont know if the prices have changed since last year.

 

i bought the car like this off a friend. ive had the car about 2 months. so im just trying to get things in order so it runs better.

 

thats hot, let me get it from you.
