What are ALL the features that the Apex'i VAFC II includes?? I know its for fuel map, wide throttle, narrow throttle, low cam, high cam, can tell the engine when to switch to vtec, aaannnd..........:thinking: What else?

Can it tell oil psi? Im about to go buy an oil psi gauge separately if this thing cant read oil psi....

Also, should i spend my money on an APC oil pressure gauge? How accurate are they? Is it worth dropping $30.00 on? lol.... I'd really rather have another Autometer Ultra-Lite but my funds are somewhat low right now....:D

VAFC does VTEC control, MINOR Fuel adjustments, low cam and high cam.

TO be honest it sucks. I only recommend it if you are doing I/H/E an THATS IT. Its good for OBD2 guys that dont do alot of mods an want to still be able to pass emissions.

If you are OBD1, its a waste, you can pay me or scotty to chip your ECU for the cost of a VAFC an have a fuel an ignition tunable ECU versus a piggyback.

do not get an oil pressure gauge. Your car should have an oil light on it's own. If you do get a Oil gauge make sure it's ELECTRICAL and not MECHANICAL.

^and I bet I can guess the reason why. That was the first thing people told me about before I bought my gauges. I have 6 Auto Meter Cobalts and they are ALL electrical. A bit more, but trust me...its totally worth it.
