APEX SAC w/ vtec controller on a h22
i have aem cai, nuespeed n2 hearder, nology wires & denso plugs, hayame exhaust,
hayame fuel rail & regulator,hayame cam gears, aem pulleys, and a 50 shot ZEx, now what benifits would i get from the blue box and what does the vtec controller do and if adjusted to low or high will it mess up the engine or vtec engagment? i have noticed my vtec kicks in a little after 5000 could i move it lower and how would i adjust the air flow?

with that much mods, the v-afc probably benefits u the most
u can go to the dyno, or an A/F ratio gauge if u have confidence to urself
+ or - 10% fuel delivery from 1000->2000>3000... 9000 rpm
and u will definitely feel ur car with more power. definitey
u can lower the vtec setting down to 3100, but then u need to give it more fuel to eliminate the lean before vtec kicks in (low cam to high cam)
it's easy, just takes time to do it urself, i did mine for about 3 hours.
either way, u will love the v-afc

I take it you have a H22 and you mean the APEXi V-AFC?
It's good for adjusting your air/fuel ratio (when measured on a dyno with wideband O2 sensor). Most normally-aspirated H22s run real rich, so the V-AFC is good for leaning out the mixture. With your NOS setup, though, you'd use it to make sure your mixture stays rich. 99% of H22s with stock cams have the lo-cam and hi-cam torque curves intersect at around 4,700 RPM, and this is the best place to set the VTEC crossover. People usually gain almost 30 HP at ~4,700. Other than that, the V-AFC doesn't add to much power on the top end, maybe a few ponies if you're lucky. It's a fuel and VTEC managment tool.

3100 on an h22 is too low of a crossover, could be done on a single cam, but that is even too low, when i had my vafc i had my x-over at 3500
