Anyways just had to share...u know everyone post when they get new goodies or toys installed on the whip..take care guys!!

Peach, what numbers did you put down? Did they do this on the dyno?

Peachery360

Naw...i didn't put it on the dyno...i had a tuner guy do it for 50 snaps!!...just like blackack said...im savin the dyno tune for when the cams get put it!!...cuz thats when ill really need it...but yea def a HUGE difference!!...love it...and can't wait for the cams!

Peach, who are you sending your cams to, to get machined? I had my cams for about 2 years and I just hadn't been able to find anyone in my area that does machining. It's to the point that I'll pay for shipping both ways to get these in..

to bad dyno tunes are so much money. coulda got a dyno tune for the V-AFC then one for the cams and such to really see how much you gained.

good luck.

wow i'm not the only one! lol

SupraManAG

so what were your numbers

Gregyz

Does a VAFC raise or lower the point in time when your VTEC hits? <---huge noob question

97BlackAckCL

iTrader: (6)

U can set it up or down

question for the 3.0 guys. other than the V-AFC II (which in my opinion is useless) what other forms of ECU tuning can you guys use?? since you really cant convert to OBD-1 i dont see too many options. i dont mean to say the V-AFC is useless but it really doesnt let you fine tune much. its pretty basic, but at least its afforadable. its just useless for me since im OBD1.

Cocoa and Ethenol. what are you guys using to tune your cars?? i know you can use Hondata. what about like Neptune or Crome??

SupraManAG

i dont see why not

Peachery360

I have it set @ 3800!!...ill make a lil video for you guys and post it!!

good bye gas mileage.

one thing ive learned is just because your VTEC crossover is set low doesnt mean your making the most power. H22euro-r's vtec is set at stock and that tune made him the most power.

We can't use hondata.

There's no point in using anything better than your typical piggy back systems because there's no way of advancing timing with our ecu's.

3800 vtec crossover was either stock, or just fine to set it at. I forget which of the 2. But mine was either set at 3800, or left alone at that. (I had my tune by one of the best shops in SoCal. I'm sure you guys have heard of Jason from Rage Motorsports. He held a few recods at the time in drag). I'm not trying to disagree with ghost, just saying I think it might be stock at 3800. But in either instance, the tune was set for drag and it had the flatest torque line all the way across with vtec set at 3800.

Your gas mileage will decrease with a shitty tune (and viceversa). Good tuning = water to form out the exhaust. This is because everything will be burnt in the combustion chamber except for the hydrogen molecules which will then latch on to the oxygen molecules coming out forming water. I will have to find my notes in order to explain the chemistry behind bad and good tunes. I remember doing another smog test on my car to verify all that crap, and my car put out less emissions after the tune then before. They were far better numbers than stock. Wish I still had put that in my folder. But with moving around so much, I've lost a lot of documentation I've tried to keep. Lost a few charts I really wish I have not.

I'm using Greddy Emanage Blue as it came with the t-kit. Stand alone will be used in the future when I get my hands on a miss-firing kit.

Vtec cross over starts at 3500 for the 3.0's.

o0o wow i didnt know vtec engaged that soon. but then again when i made that comment i forgot your motors only rev to like 5500-6k anyways. my bad.

i keep forgetting we cant all rev to 8k

Cocoa

To be honest, I always thought it was 4200-4500 when vtec hit a few years back. I remember argueing with CLPower about this years ago. I never felt shit at 3500, lol. That's why I was like, no way!

The 3.0's rev at 6250.

The CLS revs at 7200.

what's vtec on the 2.2's and is there anything worth tuning it with?

The crossover is hardly noticeable as is.

732xghost

iTrader: (1)

the v-afc wont work for a 2.2. you probaly either need to chipped OBD-2 ECU that sets your crossover lower and also sets your rev-limit higher. or you can probaly convert to OBD-1. to be honest when i had my F22 i never looked into anything like that, cuz i thought it would just be a waste of money.

Gnate

iTrader: (10)

Yeah, my thoughts exactly...

732xghost

iTrader: (1)

our car was seriously given the worst F22. everyone knows the non-vtec F22A6 is by far the best with the most potential because of the cylinder head design.

Dicorp

i always though vtec is at 4800 for the j30.

h22s dont really go to 8k stock either, thats just a tach glitch.
more like 7600.

It's 4something

Peachery360
