Not really.
Are you comparing JDM or AUDM DC5R?

AUDM DC5R uses different tie rod ends and the stock height is different too.

EP3 is about 3/4 inch lower than AUDM DC5R.

def interested in it if, how bout tuning wise though? did you touch anything or just chucked it on and left it?

With the majority of mods to the engine liek intake or exhaust related, it would benefit more greatly with an aftermarket ecu tune.

But Im running mine without one atm and its fine.

Have tried it with a kpro for fun and it was 10x better.

yeh i don't have the funds atm for kpro so that will have to wait till i get more work done to the car and get it tuned at once. might just get power plenum done later on as well then.

someone mentioned getting a vafc2 to just alter a/f ratios and make sure all is running right but i don't know if that is worth it or just save up for kpro?

[Chi]

If getting the VAFC2 was more than enough I think most people would of done that instead of Kpro dont you think? lol

I sure as hell would if it would solve it that easily.

[Philip Lee]

if u're going to get kpro eventually, don't get the vafc now as this is just a waste of $$. however if u don't plan to get ecu then vafc would be good to balance your mixture.

[typercivic]

yeh exactly. the vafc2 would only be a stop gap till the kpro anyway as it's very limited in what it can do, only there to make sure things are running fine till kpro.

[aaronng]

VAFC only controls fuel. You need to control ignition and cam timing advance as well in order to get good gains.

[SuperSteve]

man all this talk about ep3 mods is making me drool

[Nepolian]

Save yourself the hassel and save up for a full ECU.

[typercivic]

yeh im gonna start saving for kpro but it's gonna take awhile i think.

taken off my j's racing strut brace today to sell....anyone want it ha ha only a month old from jdm concept

trying to think of what else i can sell that will get me to kpro hmmm...wind deflectors anyone lol
