Chances are, you don't need one. What mods do you have?

At this point you definately don't need a vtec controller or fuel management.

No one with bolt ons should be even close to considering using an AEM EMS.

thats why i asked what his plans were. the ems will control vtec, a lot more, and if he goes turbo, it saves money in the end. just get an apexi vafc

vtec controller is always good, you can get to 150 alot quicker when your car has already shifted to vtec when you drop it at the top of fourth into fifth it doestn't lag at 130 as long!!!

Lowering your VTEC engagement point will lose you horsepower.
