Default Field's SFC-VTEC settings

I know the best way to tune a VTEC controller is to put it on the dyno. Since I'm a broke-a$$, I don't have money for a gang of dyno runs. I'm wondering if anyone has the Fields SFC-VTEC controller and has it set for a B16. I know each engine will be different, but I need to know a ballpark range on what to set it at. The only thing I could find was a guy who's engine was too rich, so he set it for that.

Any help would be appreciated.

I do but all I can say is what you don't want to hear: go to a dyno for tuning. Ballpark figures can't really help because as you said, every car is different. If you are going to try it yourself i recommend not going past + or - 4 or 5 % or else you'll screw something

Thanks for the info, the friend that sold it to me said that when he put his in his car, prelude, he tried tuning it for 3 days. Almost a year later he finally got it dyno tuned and they changed ALL of the settings. (His car got stolen and the insurance company bought him a new one, which he sold to me) It just goes to show that unless you have worked with them a lot, you probably don't have any clue what to set it at.

I have too many toys right now, I can't afford dyno runs. I might just keep it at/around 0 until I can afford it. It did make a difference with the default settings.
