Default 99si VAFC problems... i think????

well i just switched from an SAFC to a VAFC and ill be damn this thing is a bitch not only to use but my car runs totally different....

so heres the question: when i go into vtec on low throttle and just drive thru the rom band, it sorta "pops". no wi have the vtec set at 5000rpms, but if i hold the throttle a little longer it just starts popping like it is detonating. i havent ever used one of these so i dont know.

on full throttle my shit is fine, works great but only on low throttle does it run kinda shitty.

need some help here guys

Almost everyone, including myself, that i've talked to has had the same thing happen after the installation of a VAFC, i don't think it's anything to be alarmed about, though i have yet to find an explanation for it.

VAFC'S Are Over Rated So Are Turbos, And As A Matter Of Fact So Are Si's

What You Need To Do Is Take That Beater Of The Road

BTW - You Think I Could Drive It Sometime
