Is there a piggy back that will control air/fuel and engine control? (ie rpm limits etc..) and if there are a few, which one would you recommend (and i am looking for the best bang for my buck...I just bought a full set of snap-on tools for my automotive classes...sooooo im not exactly looking to spend a ton...)

apexi AFC-neo, will run you about 3-400, but will offer excellent adjustability. Most guys run this in conjunction with a K&N intake to replicate the effect of the SRT, most of the time with great results.

Just get it installed and dyno tuned by a good shop or install it yourself and get it dyno tuned correctly and you should be able to see some decent gains.

i have looked at that...but will that allow me to change my rev limit/shift points?

jcat_350

that i do not believe it does...it is strictly an a/f tuner. I'm not just sure anyone makes a unit to alter shift points on our cars outside of doing a full factory ecu reflash

what is the hp increase supposed to be with the k&n and the neo? (i have a CAI with a K&N..so what kind of increase would i see from what i already have?)

jcat_350

i think there's a thread about this that you may have posted in, about SRT+ECU vs. the K&N and Neo...check that out.

If you are looking for a A/F controller, then go with Camcon. You will get the bonus of a VVT controller as well, that would be the best bang for your buck.
As for shifting, raising the rev, only a stand alone ecu can do that and not all of them can, so that means some serious $ will have to be spent.

Only a standalone will allow you to raise the rev limit. The stock ecu will let you wind out the gears higher if you have a raised rev limiter. I currently have my limiter set at 7600rpm and the car shifts at around 7400rpm if I just leave it in D and gun it.

how do you raise the rev limiter?

shvc1991

Through a full ECU reflash.

jriggs

stand alone and re flashing are the ways to raise the limiter, unless your going f/i i don't think there are many advantages to raising the limit.


have you used the Camcon units before? any links to vvt tuning with those units and effects (pros/cons) of changing vvt points

the camcon unit looks sweet, but i cant find one for sale anywhere! ebay only have 1 and its for honda's will the is300 camcon plug and play into a 98 gs3?

side note - doesn't the apexi neo also control vvti or does it only control vtec?

Vtec only.
