Rep Power: 787 Not really needed again unless you have turbo. A vafcII and stock injectors should be more than enough for some NA boltons. Even with the head ports, I'm not running lean.

How the vafc2 going , still strong? No loss of power or back to stock. Just checking up i'm thinking of dyno tune mine ,but i heard a lot rumors about vafc2 going back to stock.

Rep Power: 787 I'm getting another tune with new mods in the spring, so I'll post back. The 2whp I gained really isn't that much to feel tho.

Rep Power: 274 I just got some dyno time in yesterday to adjust my vtec settings. Im using an LX ecu for my d17a2 but these were the best settings the tuner could come up with.
Vtec Cont L-H 4500 > H-L 4000
Vtec Unmat 0%
Throttle point 15% narrow 40% wide
Narr. thr (Low Vtec)
1800(rpm) -4
2200 -4
2600 -4
3200 -4
3600 -4
4000 -4
4200 -4
Running very rich in lower rpms
Wide. thr. (High Vtec)
4600 + 5
5000 +5
5400 +6
5800 +7
6200+ +8
Was running very lean without fuel adjustments at vtec point.
Base dyno when i came in was 111.7 whp and 109.6 tq, with vtec set to 3900. After tuning the numbers were 120.2 whp 114.1 tq. 181.4 whp and 190.7 Tq with a 50 shot of n20, bottle pressure was at 950psi
Side note TDC and VTC wires were not connected

Rep Power: 274 Thank god i had a helms for the ecu wiring, these are the wires though
Ignition= Yellow/Black
Ground= Black
Throttle position sensor= Red/Black
Map (pressure)= Green/Red
Rpm Vssout= Blue/White
Ignition= Yellow/Black

Rep Power: 787 Well it really wasn't made for our car. The second one has our engine map or equivalent. I guess if you can make it work with diodes, cool.

It shouldnt need diodes either all it does is change the signals up or down in voltage to fool the ecu, its not changing flow direction...? I just need more info than, "it doesnt work, it trips the CEL"...

it uses different voltages thats the purpose of the diodes and resistors... to reduce the voltage/signal being sent/received which is throwing the check engine light

I know my ECU doesnt like it when I change my fuel more than +/-10% and sometimes it gives me a CEL but really who needs to adjust it more than that? Turbo? If you do you should move to a standalone or AEM EMS or similar right?

Rep Power: 787 safcII is the same unit without vtec function, so it should work just fine. I think even the original safc would work, since the problem had to do with vtec engagement and not a/f changes.
Btw, xproductionz adjusted his fuel ALOT with the vafcII after swapping an ex head on the lx to compensate for vtec.

Rep Power: 787 You need to get it dyno tuned, but I doubt that's why it's stuttering (unless you have turbo or something). Goto Garage Kwai in arlington heights.

Rep Power: 0 u dont have any settings that i can use for right now?..i dont want performace, i just want that thing gone, i know why its doin the stutter, maybe im usin the wrong term, but the a/f mixture is too lean, which way do i go to make it not so lean?
