Yup I had that problem before. Everytime I went over a bump or moved the VAFC with my hand the car would either start to stall out or just completely die. I pulled it out and saw that some of the wires were frayed. I heat shrunk them and reinstalled it and it was fine after that.

it was the wires from the vtec controller itself. It was vtec and another wire but I can't remember what the other wire was sorry man it was about 2 years ago.
