does vafc wait for car to warm up ?

[evilsub]

hi guys

im driving a stock dc2 vtir atm, and ive had a del sol before

both cars wouldnt engage vtec until the car was warm

but on my friends dc2r, and my girlfriends ctr, they both have vafc's, and i can engage vtec as soon as i turn on the car (yes i realise its bad for the car, but it was for experimental purposes =P), and i can even engage vtec in neutral.

so do vafcs (and other vtec controllers) wait for the car to be warmed before enabling vtec ?

No they don't, they have no option what so ever to control any cold start parameters.

that's very weird cause i got vafc in my car as well, but vtec always kick in regard to cold or warm, and as for can you get vtec on neutrel, i dont think that is possible cause i've tried in on my itr

and i can even engage vtec in neutral.
