My AFC hack ran good. I didnt adjust the timing right off bat, so it was had idle problems. After that it ran great. But why do double work. Why not wait until you get the EMS to do everything. And why spend money on two management units. IF you are getting the vafc for free, then maybe, but if you are paying for it....WHY???
