Default does this damage my car???

I install a VAFC last night and I didn't initialize the VAFC correctly. The car was running on 6 cyclinder mode for about 20 to 30km. I notice the car jerk a bit during decceleration at closed throttle. After I reset my car, it run fine. I would like to know if there be a long term affect? Someone told me that prelude would disable the power to the injector at below 1k to 2k for saving gas. Does this mean there were no fuel at the time, like have an bad injector?? What would that do to my car??

Have anyone done something like this before??? If so, do u notice anything wrong?

I want to know if my baby is ok!!!!

I did that also... it will be fine! Its been about a year since that happened and my car is running perfectly. Although mine was only running on V6 mode for about 2 miles.

yea ure cool dude, we put it on the 13 cylinder setting just to see what would happen because we thought it was rediculous that there was even a 13 cylinder setting on there, it made it run like crap, but we got a kick out of it, just be careful next time, and don't get so anxious!
