Hey all, noob to Hondas...
Hey guys, I've got a friend that owns a SOHC VTEC turbo'd 90 Civic sedan. He just recently got it back from a shop that did somewhat shoddy work, and it's completely untuned, IMO.
He told me today that he has VAFC, but is not sure how everything works. (Nor am I)
I'm a Nissan guy, and I've got an SR20DE+T powered 98 SE-R, with a realtime ECU, so tuning isn't a problem for me. It's the VAFC that I've never touched or dealt with, that I'd like to help him with.
I'm not sure what other mods he has, other than a Walbro 255lph HP fuel pump, and T3/T4 turbine and manifold (one of those non-rebuildable eBay knock off's). I think he's got upgraded injectors, but that's about all I can think of that he has. I'm not even sure he's got an AFPR, whether he's running at 3bar or 4bar, etc.
Basically, I'm wondering if someone can give me a quick run down on settings on the VAFC, to help him at least get a street tune. As of right now, he's a little hurt that I walk all over him at the track, and I'm a little heavier, with a smaller turbine at 10psi.
Anyhow, thanks for your help in advance.
(For the record, I did try searching with even the simplest keywords, such as VAFC, or SAFC, and the search results didn't report ANYTHING.)

Re: Hey all, noob to Hondas... (TeKKiE)
In all honesty don't waste your time with the VAFC. Get the ecu chipped with crome or uberdata and get a real tune. Here's a link to a thread that has a bunch of well-known tuners, https://honda-tech.com/zerothread/1347699. Since your friend is in texas, he has some pretty good choices when it comes to looking for a tuner.
