Default what could go wrong ?

my car is stock now !
and installed VAFC. now my pronlem is "i think" i dont have enough fuel after 7k rpm, coz my car is kinda choking at 7krpm, it stoped there for a sec, and my engine sound really bad, like it's going to blow.
i didnt change any setting on VAFC. would default setting on VAFC is different ? would OBD2 not working with VAFC ?
i had turbo kit before (like one day) and i didnt change anything, the shop took it off, just left the VAFC on it, could this cost the problem ?
i posted before but wasnt getting much help, so please help me.
should i take it out ? if i do would this solve my problem ?or should i leave it there. since later on i'm thinking going with header exhuast CAI and my be toda cam?
pleae help me

why only use the turbo kit for 1 day??? i believe they must changed something on the vafc when u were running with the turbo kit....so i say just keep it and get your N/A set up ready and tune it again.
vafc can run with obd2 with no problem, i run with stock ecu for almost 2 years, had no problem at all.
wat's your set up now?

Disconnect the MAP sensor wire from the v-afc and see if your car runs better.

if just like you said that u are running all stock set up and have problem with 7k rpm and up then it's werid, but still it won't help at all even if u take out the VAFC. Are u running stock intake too? wat im thinking first that could be weather, second is just wat u feeling there and human make mistakes when state something with body feeling , try it again some other time see if it happens everytime.

Was your car/engine warmed up?

On the NSX, the rev limiter kicks in at 7100 RPM when the engine is cold, and it only lets you go to redline once the engine is warmed up. I don't know if the ITR works the same way, but the symptoms you describe are exactly what the NSX does when it's not warmed up.

i know it's my car ! coz i took my friend's SiR the thing is smooth all the way to red line, and i go back to my car it's just choking........ and yes i'm running stock intake !

btw reading the apexi vafc manual, what's the cylinder thing we have to set ? is that how many cylinder in the car ? like type-r = 4 cylinder and v6 accord =6 cylner ? or it's some other meaning ?

yes i do know i need to have the car warmed up b4 i hit vtec !!
