and I'm gonna quote my last post from the 1st gen CL forum since it applies to this thread as well

So now I've got the wires run but I've disconnected the VAFC until I eventually get those custom cams installed, but who knows when that'll be though.

yea man, its really useless unless you have mods, because its suppost to work WITH your mods ie. headers, intake, pulley.... so if you install it now, you will have to tune it again everytime you get a new mod. im not sure if its true but i also have heard that our car's ecu recognizes it eventually and overides it i think.... so research before you install anything in your car...gl

Thanx Alot for the warning guys 
thankfully i didnt install it yet and i didnt pay full price my friend who works at a shop hooked me up. i bought it for about $100 i thought it was a great deal. i guess i'll just hold on to it until i get my other mods first and then i'll install and tune it. u guys saved my ass once again

you wouldnt even get that much cause you need to tune the car at the dyno n plus you have no mods. if you do header intake n exhaust the most you will get with tuning is ten more hp to the wheels. i went through that it was not worth the money. you should have done your ecu instead you would get more power than the v-afc
