which is best?

easiest tuning?

easiest wiring?


this is a serious poll guys feel free to add any other vtec controllers please no messed crap poll choices..

 

none of them are going to work as well or keep your car running the correction ignition and fuel settings as a tuned ECU.

 

i heard its best to leave your vtec crossover point at stock settings unless u have a highly modded engine. No need for them if you engine is stock.

 

vtec controller?? i didnt know people still want to even considerin on using one..lol

 

vafc whats that? chipped ecu FTW

based on the fact that if you raise or lower vtec on a stock engine you'll likely see a drop in power

Just listen to the poll

Based on the fact that honda engineers spent countless hours tuning and hence theyre title engineering the best crossover point for the engine. Then your gona go and get a vtec controller and mess up your engine.. why? unless you have a highly modded engine and know what the hell your doing, you should leave your crossover point to the stock ECU settings

 

well i dont use a sorry *** vafc thats hack ****.well i reset the vtrec its at 4800 no lower and it seems to runs better far as i can tell.ive never puyt a car on the dyno and adjust vtec points yet.so i cant arggue with the power loss cause i havnt seen it first hand.

what engine do you have again? what are you using for engine management? how did you exactly reset vtec?

 

As many of you know, you have to use a dyno to find your optimal VTEC engagement point. Set your VTEC right at redline, and tune the engine throughout the rev range on just the low-rpm cam. Then, set it really low, say 4000rpm, and tune the VTEC cam from 4k to redline. Overlay the final dyno graphs from each cam, and the point where the tq-bands crossover is the optimal point to set your VTEC, its as simple as that. You can set it a tad higher to make it "kick" more noticeably, as Honda themselves tends to do, but that's how the optimal point is found. While you're not likely to see an increase in power by changing VTEC engagement if your engine is stock, you don't just wait until you've got a certain amount of power and then just guess where to set it. Do it right or don't touch that ****. And yes, I recommend a tuned OBD1 ecu.
