    Default Okay, done research..found nothing on the Apex'i VAFC2.

    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.......... 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....

    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.
