The -J- is the engine series and the -A- is the head series.

I have a V-AFC2 with the dyno tune from mine for sale.

For under a grand,without the risk of blowing the tranny,start of with bigger cams,better fuel delivery,to name a few,the V-AFC2 will be a nice addition..

I would buy it from falkore but im working on something else.And not in need for it now.

I agree. I'd buy the V-AFC and work on suspension. Suspension has a bigger WOW factor for the same money as you'd pay for a few horsepower.

The V-AFC might not make a huge gain in power, but the VTEC controls definitely make the car faster. Also, ou can set it up so that VTEC behaves according to YOUR driving preferences. I set it up to engage at 3200 and disengage at 2800. Instant engagement when the gas goes past 65% and also when the intake vacuum drops to -0.5 psi.
