VFAC enough for low-boost turbo setup?
Hi.
A lot of turbo kits I've seen only come with an Apex'i VFAC. I'm wondering if this unit is sufficent to keep a sub-7psi system running smoothly with my h22a?
At what point do people start using Hondata/Emanage/AEM EMS?

VAFC? thats for tuning vtec. i have never seen a KIT where it includes a vafc tho. alot of people will run an afc hack which is good up to about 15psi. alot of kits come with a VERY shitty FMU which i wouldnt push past 7 psi.
as far as the other fuel management listed, i would go Hondata all the way.

VAFC doesnt just control vtec, its for controlling fuel.
It sounds like your thinking of it as a boost controller.. itll be fine for fuel management, although I would always prefer a hondata..

sorry about that, im tired. but any way, Hondata is deffinitly a good idea like they said if you have the money and the patience to learn all that comes with tuning your own computer. but personally i would use the afc hack, that is only because i dont plan on running that high of a boost, but that is just me. you may want to alter a lot more then just air/fuel, and with hondata, you can train your car to roll over and do tricks (well, not exactly, but you get my drift)
