This is what i have already, i have the Mugen Exhaust, and the comptech Cai. I am looking to get either the Mugen ECU or the Vafc. Im also planning on getting TODA cams. Please comment on this (pros and cons), any suggestions would help.

thanks alot!,

I think it comes down to personal preference. I like the V-AFC because you can adjust the A/F ratio yourself. The Mugen ECU sets the A/F ratio for you. Both offer similar power gains. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think personal preference is the biggest factor in deciding this one.
On the TODA cams, ask HamS2000, he is the only person I know of running the TODA camshafts.

so running the mugen ecu and the vafc would be pointless, right?

The Mugen ECU is not adjustable / programmable at all, so you would probably be better off with the V-AFC, especially if you are wanting to do cams. I'm pretty sure you would not be able to do cams if you get the Mugen ECU. I think it is more of an optimization for the few Mugen Bolt-Ons (Intake / Header / Exhaust).

I'm pretty sure that it does advance timing. Although I think I have read that it advances timing too much for some mods.
