Re: vafc
Yes, it is because the tuning on the VAFC is jacked up. The proper way to tune this unit is with a minimum of a wideband. Even better if tuned on the dyno.
Nope, do not unplug it, unles you reconnect the MAP sensor, VTC, and VTEC wires back to the stock configuration also. Those wires are the only ones that are not tapped. They were actually reconfigured. The rest of the wires were tapped signals.
Bring it to me.... I'll take a look at it. Hopefully, your unit was wired properly. If not, then even if I set it on "default", it may not make much difference. Keep in mind that I'm not offering to tune your VAFC. I will only set it back on default..... PM me.

As mentioned, if your motor is not modified, you will not gain much at all.... nothing that you will feel. Contact any local dyno equipped shop and inquire with them. You'll pay dyno time + tuner time. Dyno time is between $50 to 75 an hour. Then whatever the tuner charges per hour. You are looking at a minimum of $100......

Re: vafc

Re: vafc
you'd be suprise... you might actually make more power. Running "rich" does not necessarily mean more power.
If you are willing to shell out the price quoted to you by a tuner, then go for it........ with those mods you listed.... Dont expect too much.....

Re: vafc
Get rid of the afc and get a chipped ecu if you want a tune.
