Hey guys i was thinking about getting a MIVEC controller, but i havent really seen that many, the closest and most stylish one i've seen is the APEXi VAFC, but the question is..... because its build for VTEC YO!!!!! engines, could this still be used on MIVEC engines? and will all the features of the electronic device still work?
Thanks

VAFC's are just bling in FTO's.. Get yourself a piggy back ECU. Much more functionality at a fraction more of the price.

but keep in mind that tuning and installation will end up costing more than the unit itself
