A few things to note.. what ap1 was it from in the beginning. Because we all know we have differ ecu's throughout the years, thus differ fuel and timing maps..
So this may be tuned for a certain year and could hurt you.
No only that every climate is different, this one can be tuned a cold climate and ur in a hot climate..

All in all techincally you could run it but i wouldn't risk it, get it retuned..

Good idea to get it re-tuned for your car. You'll notice a smoother pulll throughout the gears.

Yea, just reset everything to factory so it doesn't change anything.

why not just get a vafc? the safc has no control over vtec if i remember correctly... + with most tunes though it made that much power on his car does not mean it will make the same power in yours.
