i Need to know the ups and downs about Vafc! Some may know more than outhers . so ill try to puzzle the post info and figure it out for myself, THANKS

PLEASE POST!

 

ya, i would like to know some cons about vafc, i cant really think of any...

 

If you don't want to cut into your wiring harness, you will have to invest in a 200 dollar harness converter. But if you use a soldering gun to do your wires, that does the same job with the same reliability.

 

Cons - Someone might steal it if it's in plain sight.

 

cons: the 200-300 dollars its gonna cost u to get one...

Cons, those hidden costs. It's useless to you without dyno time for tuning.

 

There's nowhere to put the dam thing.

 

Glove compt, armrest, gauge bezel, dash, I've even seen them mounted in a sun visor

 

ok, you got me. It WOULD be cool to mount it in the sunvisor. I never thought of that.

It just frustrates me because it's too tall for a din, and if you mount it there anyway, you can't put anything in the cup holder. Too much moisture. It looks lame on top of the dash. Its not supposed to be in direct sunlight anyway. In the instrument cluster bezel... not for me. Same for the glove box.

Anyone have a picture of one mounted in their sunvisor?

 

I love mine, its simple to tune with (some would argue with me on this) and it is reliable, I mess with it on my Integra all the time, I just dont lean it out too much until I am on the dyno.

 

VAFCs are Stunna Versions of a Full Standalone ECU.

 

get hondata.

 

chicks dig the flashy blue

 

you can never shut down that damn thing
it's on forever.......once you connected the wires together.. you can't shut the down no more..

 

yank the plug man. there's a plug u can pull off...but yea i say go hondata..

 

i like my VAFC

 

should be getting my in two weeks, i only here nothing but good things about it.

but it isn't worth it if you don't go to a dyno.

pros-there more tunning avail than the Fields' vtec controlller(currently owned)

 

Is that Ish true about Gsr ecu's supposedly knocks over rides your Vafc, and ***** up alot of ****?

 

i kept throwing check engine code of vtec engagement failure. i have 3 other friends who expericened the same.

 

nothing's happened to me.

 

for the good - go to http://www.apexi-usa.com
for the bad - Dosen't show speed like fields, and dosent beep at shift point like fields, but better in every other possible way but those.
for the ugly - mounting it in the sunvisor (tell the guys behind you you have a VAFC)

 

if you are looking for a place to mount it, try ditching the ashtray. I have mine there and it is a perfect fit, alowing you to keep you cig lighter also.

 

i like mine, too bad it's only a piggyback, need a full standalone to harness all the potential power.

 

hmm did you all 4 do the installs together?

 

seriously. that could only be because of wiring error.
