absolutely
you may be doing more harm than good by using someone elses settings.

It wouldn't do any harm, your car might not perform good if you had someone's settings though....Especially since I have the KMS manifold installed....Do yourself a favor and just have it tuned...You won't be sorry

When they do a full tune, they adjust the air/fuel mix and the VAFC input/output...Make sure you get the VAFCII because it has alot more tunability features than the first...Also, you'll need to have your car modded up in order to take full advantage of the tuning...If you'll search, I posted my dyno results..Even with the lose of power the KMS manifold gave me, it still gave me really good gains in the mid range...It's the best mod I have yet..Most noticable

I have the first one and no dynoed and I set 16.09. I only have H/I/M aftermaket downpipe, and Denso Sparks by engine mods. So I have Nitto Street Tires. The problem is on the VAFC-I. I need to sell & buy the second one.

If anyone else here paid $150, I'm sure they wouldn't be so quick to hand out their info either. I know when I get mine tuned I'm not gonna hand out my settings for 3 reasons.

1) because I paid for it.
2) because my settings won't work on another car.
3) because the rest of the lazy bums need to get up and put money down for their own tuning.


This is the same reason why people with custom turboes don't let others know exactly how their shops do the work.

^ True that fly. Can you put VAC-2 on a stock car and see gains or does it have to be modded. I have I/H/E. Would it be better to get it now or wait for more powerups? You have to get it retuned each time you put something on the car, right?

In that case I guess I'll just get another CAI and AEM Pulleys before I get the VAFC Tuned.
