Bring it to a shop with a dyno and an experienced tuner. Every car is different, so you can't tune it yourself.

check the VAFC library for initial settings. Have you low/hi throttle set to like 80 and 81% so the VAFC wont kick in till WOT and the ECU will controll till then. Get to a dyno and tuner ASAP

make sure the settings are zero'd because you dont want to be running lean and damage your car...then take it to a dyno with a person who knows how to tune a vafc for a honda and you will be good.

Make sure your tuner has a dyno WITH a wideband O2 sensor. If they don't have the O2 sensor, they will be tuning for max power, and will probably lean it out too much.

Even better... If you install a WBO2 sensor and find a way to log and read the outputs... you can do tuning yourself....
