i picked up a used vafc yesterday for $150 from a friend, ive got all the wires and the mounting bracket, but no instruction manual. ive got the instructions online so i think thats all i need. does anyone have any advice before i tackle this? im not the BEST with wiring, but i think i'll be able to manage. any info will be appreciated.

peace

Go to electronics>V-AFC>Documentation

and the manual will be in pdf format

 

Heatshrink and solder ALL of your connections, don't use crappy vampire taps or anything like that......

cool cool, i know about apexi's site, but thankyou. i guess im going to have to solder everything, since it seems like the way to go. dont want to risk any engine damage. do all wires connect to the ecu? or do some go other places?

peace

 

all wires connect to ecu

 

the X's on the wiring diagram, do they stand for a break? and it looks like the original vtm wire doesnt go to anything, im kinda confused, havent looked too carefully at it.

 

and now as i look closer, it looks like the original vtm signal wire gets cut and i just connect a wire from the vafc to the ecu, and just cap off the original wire? doesnt do anything then? please let me know if you know what im talking about.

thanks

 

Yes, the VTM wire is an input wire. The wire coming in from the firewall goes nowhere. The VTM wire from the V-AFC connects to the ECU VTM wire to fool the ECU into thinking that VTEC is being engaged at the stock time.

 

installed! and wow i used some posted settings to test it out, and WOW it pulls so much harder. im lovin it

thanks everyone
