Default b16a2

I purchased a apexi vafc2. I havent set it up yet. But, when i do, what should my optimal vtec crossover be. running obd2 p73 currently i believe its at 5700 or 5900. my rims alter my tack presently...so, should i raise it or keep it the same

question 2--my car felt faster with the stock intake mani and tb. And now with the type r parts, i am reving to almost 3800-4000 and keeping up with ttrafic. switch back

question 3- i replaced my cam with cat cams. Has anyone heard of them. any reviews

1. Why are you running a P73?

2. Do you KNOW that it is faster? I know with my skunk2 im (Type R) mine gets better flow.

3. Have never heard of them.

This is just a total guess but for your crossover since your redline[sarcasm] isn't high[/sarcasm]. I guess like 6000-6500.

I'm not sure, but does the ITR stuff have the secondary butterflies?

Never heard, search.

P.S. I searched for #1 and found it keyword "ITR vtec crossover."

You could find it all, just search. Good luck with your engine.

I actually don't really know the difference between the P73 and P30, but I know that the ITR does NOT have secondary butterflies. That's the GSR.

And having vtec set at 5900 isn't bad. It's the guys with it set at 4k or something stupid like that really chaps my *** .

What mods do you have? Besides cams, tb, and im? I would think that a P30 would work best since that is stock ecu for a B16. Of course, then again, that's why I don't do electronics.

Like I said, I don't know a whole lot about the whole electronics thing, but it sounds like a B16 with bolt ons, so I would just stick with the P30.
