I wouldnt boost on an afc.... It will kill your motor... Its ok for if you wanna make 200whp I suppose, but if u plan on making decent power, ditch it...

As ics said. Try to stay away from a piggy back.
Look into a system such as uberdat, crome, hondata etc.

If you are going to buy hondata, I would wait for hondata s300 or the new neptune.

Nothing wrong with boosting an LS Vtec... They are good motors when built right... Ive been tossin around the idea for a bit now honestly

I honestly wouldnt waste money on Hondata... Maybe Mr.Mtber will take the time to tell you a bit about the Crome pro software (after you read his tuning editorial of course ) and save you some money... He tuned my car with the Crome Pro, and Im as happy as can be...
