Yeah, I've had one(VAFC2) in my car untuned for the last month, Better to leave it alone than chance screwing your engine up. I just leave it in display mode to get a better reading of my RPM haha. Hopefully get mine tuned this week or next week.

Best way to get the most power and reliability is to have a pro do it
