Default VAFC installed along with nitrous... Vtec is jumpy... Possibly need to take and get tuned!!!!

I recently got the apexi VAFC-II installed along with NX nitrous kit... Either i need to get my car tuned now or the vtec controller is not set right yet. Then problem that i have is when i get to the vtec level when driving (5400 rpm) the engine seems to misfire or its jumpy... Its just not steady... I dont really know how to explain it... Maybe you guys have heard of something or had that same problem... Please let me know or email me and i could tell you more about the problem... email me at aks98prelude or im on yahoo or aim screen name aks98prelude.... hit me up guys i need to get this problem fixed before im gonna start spraying the nitrous... Thanks again

Set everything back to stock settings on the VAFC until you can get to the dyno
