i dont see how tehre could be a problem unless you tune it wrong, or do some mess up in the installation.

why does he want a vafc? what does he want to get out of it? Remember that the vafc really works under WOT, under partial throttle, the ecu tends to compensate for the corrections made in the vafc. There are ways around this but adjusting the settings in the low to high throttle but honestly if you want to tune the car, upgrade to something either standalone like the EMS or piggyback like the emanage. Either way, you have to have a reason to need to get a tuning device, mods?

Wrong.... It wont't do a lot is true! But on a dyno the pre '04 S2k's can benefit from fuel tuning.

yes, but at what cost?

If you can, buy your friend a ticket to a driving school or an open track event. He'll get much much more out of that than a fuel controller.

he already does the driving shcools all the time. And has been autocrossing since the early 80's in a vw scirocco(sp).
