Thinking of buying a V-AFC and GTech Pro.

How does $290 for the V-AFC sound? Whats a good price on the GTech?

Will the V-AFC ruin my already wonderful ( ) gas mileage?

I just posted something about that ... They run about 140 dollars, pretty cool... Just dunno how reliable they are???

Nate

Ya I know, I've been thinking about a GTech for a long time... almost bought one used for $100 off of someone... but yet again I'm thinking I'll have to wait on the GTech. The V-AFC is a sure thing though.

Does anyone know if there is a dyno that can do front wheel drive cars in the Seattle area? I understand they really push your car during a dyno, do you think its bad for it?

Nate

Well I just bought the V-AFC. Hope theres a damned dyno in my area!

did you really "buy" it?

Shyne

Dude, do you really need a V-AFC for a 2001, I thought it was already perfect for us ???

Nate

Yep, can't use web nerd magic to get *all* my parts! Remember who doesn't have to pay rent?

Shyne, the V-AFC allows you to control when VTEC kicks in and the fuel pressure for low and high cams. This can allow me to get more power out of the aftermarket mods I have. It also displays rpm, air pressure, and throttle position. Plus its gonna look cool as hell the way I'm going to install it!

I'm worried about ruining my gas mileage. I already get 16-19 MPGs regularly. Since I can control at what throttle position it gives more fuel, do you think that I could set it up so that it would only affect my gas mileage at WOT?

Tanner, or anyone with a V-AFC, at what RPM do you have your VTEC set to engage? Anyone know the exact stock RPM? 4200?

NateDog,
I'm suppose to be getting it dyno tuned this week(I think?)....... OUr stock Vtec engages around 4300-4500, I heard(by Acura Tech) that it's not good for the ECU to engage the Vtec lower than 4000(but I think that there talking about 'Tegs since there redline is at 9000....... but I set it at 4000rpm anyway

PS. Your right, it looks cool as sh*t!! when people see mines there like "Holy Sh*t, what the f#ck is that?"

Dam Nate, I can't wait to see your car when your done!!!!

Hey Nate, I got the Gtech if you wanna borrow it!! Got it and never used it.

Nate

Tanner, you'll have to post how it affects your gas mileage! How are your screens coming? I'm hoping to send mine out next month.

Mike, cool! Maybe we can hook it up at a meet and do some drag racing!

Tann@808

I decided to pass on the monitors (tryna get my house !!!)

Nate

Ahhh... who needs a place to live when you have monitors in your car!?!? Well maybe this will give me a chance to catch up... Though you still got me on the coilovers and NOS...

TLon19s

Nate you forgot about the wheels and tires too.

Nate
