Default AEM DOWN USING VAFC ON TURBO help!

I'm needing to keep driving the S and AEM is down the old VAFC is being used, now I need to street tune. It's temporary but I need some help getting it to not be groggy when accelerating. Anyone with any help with this thing please. I'm turbo'd now on afc, 650cc's, FMU, exhaust (obviously).

Thanks in advance for help
Brian

I wouldnt call it garbage, it just wouldnt help the OPs situation...in fact, it would probably make it worst. I'd call taxis or bump rides until you can get your ems back on-line

Do you have an AFR gauge/wideband? Could he attempt to cause the car to run on the rich side for safety by adjusting his FPR, then drive like a granny not exceeding 4k rpm for now? Minimal boost, rich setup keeping EGT's as low as possible. I don't know, just trying to ask and spark discussion from the FI community.

I do have wideband and we have tuned the car to a great street tune. Runs fine everything is in working order as it was with the standalone. Not going to be a headache like I thought.
