Default apexi vafc tuning?

I was wondering if anyone was able to tune or knows how to tune VAFC's from Apexi. I was thinking about getting one and my tuner doesn't tune VAFC's. Thanks.

That should tell you something why would you want to use a vafc when there are so many other and better options out there

I am just looking for a good "street" tune to control vtec engagement and to max air/fuel ratios. I am not looking for crazy numbers and am just a weekend track warrior so I don't want to spend huge cash on a system. Thanks

Get your ecu socketed. Go get a neptune tune through matt shue, all around $300. Which is wayyyyy better than getting a vafc for 150-200 bux, and than getting that pos tuned.

Not free, you have to have a socketed ecu, than get a chip burnt. Im not sure how much he charges for all motor cars, but I think it would be the same as any other car, which is $150 for a tune and to burn a chip.

that's waaaaayyyyyy too cheap for the amount of work involved... it should be at *LEAST* twice that.

a lot of it depends on how much time it takes to get the car done.

Sell it, get a chip and socketed ECu and hit up matt. Shue is a cum guzzler and an alcoholic but he can tune his ass off and provide you with a safe tune for cheap.Plus he's EFI certified. I love you Shuebox!
