Default VAFC question???

I installed and tuned my VAFC and was able to yield 207WHP with just a header back exhaust and the VAFC.



Since this dyno run I did some head work:
~port and polish
~3 angle valve job
~spoon headgasket

I wanted to know if any one is running the Spoon headgasket, or has the head ported, or both... that can share their settings with me?

Since I got the car back, it feels like the settings I had before are not quite right...
all help is greatly appreciated!

THX!

You'll need to get the V-AFC re-tuned again. Everytime you add a "power making" part/ mod to the car you'll need to get it tuned again. Now that you've done that kind of work I would have it done right away. You've lowered the compression as well as cleaned up the head and intake.

But you will need to have it retuned. I wouldn't beat up on it to hard until you do.

Cheers

The three upgrades that you have done have changed the characteristics of the car significantly. Just by P& P expect a 4-5 RWHP difference. I would recommend you redyno tune your vafc...

Look for Frequently ask questions in under the hood. There is a library of settings....

I checked the settings library but could not find any settings for my mods.
Most of the settings are for bolt ons. :/

Just keep in mind every engine is different, therefore even if you find someone with the same mods the setting most likely not be right for your car.
