not unless you add FI or something. the V-AFC is basically a chip that you can adjust. thats not really a good technical explanation, but it gets the point across. so unless the dynamics of your engine have changed significantly, you dont need a controller.

im going to put a t3 turbo in it this summer, and ill need a boost controller for that, so i wouldnt ever need a vtec controller?
or would v-afc and the boost controller be able to run simutaniously?

boost controller controls the boost. youll need a piggyback (like a VAFC) to control the fuel system also. and i wouldnt bother with a T3, just get a T25, it will spool quicker, and make plenty of power on a stock motor.
