Vtec Controller

[JDM James]

I was browsing some sites and happen to see an Apexi Vtec controller. Can some explain to me what it is and what it actually does? Does this increase performance noticably?

You can adjust when you want the vtec to kick in.Either att lower or higher RPM.And you can adjust the fuel if you like.It could give some really good gains,it all depends on what setup you got.
If you only got I/H/E i dont think you will se any big gains.

But this is only for double camshaft enguines(spelled it wrong?)

he basically said it all...

as for it being for dual cams...im not quite sure, never thought about that, dunno if that is true or not

 

[JDM James]

well hey thanks for the help.. now i understand. when i am no longer considered a nOOb?

 

[PAPPOUS]

at 50 posts...or you could change it yourself

 

[JDM James]

what do you mean i can change it myself?

 

[PAPPOUS]

go up a bit and click on user control panel then click on edit profile.You will find it in there

anyone have sugguestion on where to mount this because right now I think i may mount it in the glovebox unless i get a better sugguestion.

 

[Shiznit]

inside your steering wheel. thats where im going to mount my apexi rev meter.

mount it in your glove box if you don't want people to see it... or some people take out their radio and put it there.

the vafc is just a tunning device, without dyno tunning it won't help... then ur just going off the "butt dyno" i've seen it make some significant gains but you will need tunning. and like pappous said with just basic bolt ons it wont help, then you would be better off just shipping your ecu. good luck in what ever you do

or pop out your middle air ducts and put it there....

 

[JDM James]

that wouldnt be a bad idea but what about the middle air ducts.. wouldnt air still being trying to come up the back of the meter then?

 

[BioHazard the Reaper]

yeah but whats wron with that?? the controller will be hidden, so wont attract thieifs, and will still get some air flowing through there, and cold air wont hurt electronics....

I've heard Hondata is alot better for tuning, but if you wanna get that thing, more power to ya...
