Default Help with tuning my civic type r

I installed an apex v-tec controller, I lowered my v-tec engagement points from 6500 to 5500. I didnt touch the fuel curves because I didnt want to mess up my motor. Does anybody have any advice on how to tune my vafc. I have no experience in tuning the v-tec controller, if anybody has knowledge and willing to share. thanks

Exactly as Apexi recommends...take it to a shop that is certified with Apexi...

only way to have it tuned to benefit you is to have someone tune it on the dyno

As said, but I must repeat, only have someone certified tune it.

type R??? i would like some pics..

there isn't a set formula for instant tuning. it varies with every car, hence the responses you've been getting
