Default vafc or hondata, mild built lsvtec

im not really sure what i should tune with. my options are vafc ($130) or hondata s200 ($310). In not really sure if hondata would really benifit me that much more then a vafc,being that my motors not fully built..... any advice, and anything i should buy as far as motor parts before tuning? better headers, manifold, intake? thanks in advance

my setup is.... lsvtec in an eg
B18b
-p30 b16pistons on stock rods
-arp rodbolts, headstuds
-typeR oilpump
99B16 head (stock)
-ctr cams
-aem cam gears
-310Rc injectors
-dc 4 to 1 headers
-2.1/4 pipping
-es oval 2.5
-chipped p28
-cheap intake
Maybe a different manifold (blox)

I would go with a V-AFC instead of a hondata system.
if you have a good tuner he can get some serious power out of it with a vafc
need a dyno time we have one in house and our own tuner PM me if you need help

hondata s300 with datalogging comes in handy when tuning on a dyno

Personally, if it's not that much of a price stretch for you, I would get the Hondata. The AFC doesn't really do much. It basically tricks the MAP sensor by increasing/decreasing the voltage. Thus, you can decrease and "add" fuel in. Note that your injectors are working at about an 80% duty cycle already, and you can't really effectively add MORE fuel.

I would get some larger injectors and an engine management system (even if it's a piggyback like Hondata).

My friend has the vafc and it runs great, he tuned it himself. I used to have it too, but when I switched to hondata it was like a whole different car. It ran and idled soooo much smoother, I think I got a little worse gas mileage??? but Im not sure. We were both turbo LS/vtec though, I have no experience with all-motor anything so its probably a whole differnt story.
