No "argument" intended here, homey.
Can you, or someone else, point me to where I can find more practical evaluations of this device? I know it works because one of my fellow trackies pulls away like he's got a lot more power.
I'm extremely curious to find if this device has dynamic set points and can run with different fuels. Again, I apologize for lightly highjacking this thread, as my other intention is to find out if the VAFC-II is a worth-while addition.

Thank you,
CB

Kayvaan, I saw a post earlier from like 2002 where the guy did some test on the ECU. I wish I would have saved the post to show you. Anyways, he stated this

5000rpm and up = open loop
25% Throttle, no matter what rpm = open loop

He said he wasn't suprised at all about the rpm open loop
But he was very suprised that it goes into open loop with only 25% throttle

Anyways, I wish someone would just tune with VAFC, then dyno their car like a week later to see if they lost the gains. I would but I'm a college kid and every penny counts!

lol, yea I'm broke right now and taking liek 24 units! Right now I have the 80,81% thing going. But what your saying is that if I Have it at like 25 and 26% that it will work fine also?
That is what that guy said! Not what I said lol. Looks like we will never know. I think 80% would be fine anyways. If you ever are racing you will be at 100% right? I will look again for the post I am talking about.
