Wouldn't this be detremental to the longevity of the motor?
If it's not go ahead and tell me so and I'll throw my VE in right now and stop waiting on JWT.

go ahead and do it. it runs fine.
after i built the vvl controller for my friend's car and we dyno'ed it, we pulled 153whp on a stock ve running the stock de program and de injectors with stock se-r exhaust, open-top stock airbox and mismatched-port header with a dent in it. toying with an apfr, we got the a/f to sit at 12.5 - 13:1 across the board. the numbers aren't great, but better than most i/h/e + cams de's and this with no real bolt-ons.
interestingly, the baseline vs exhaust-always-on vs intake-always-on vs both-always-on plots definitely told us to turn the exhaust on first. it's probably something to do with the timing maps, because a/f was dead-on. we had exhaust on at 4500 and intake on at 5800. torque curve was flat from 2500 to fuel cut.
adding a fujitsubo to the thing made it noticably faster on the top end on the butt dyno. we're having a 2.5" header back fitted and making a cai for it. we'll dyno again on the stock computer after that's done and will post the results here.
then we'll try to play with the maps. anyone know where to get a daughterboard, a base de map, de address file and a prom editor proggy?
edit: whoops didn't realize how old this thread was. :o well anyway, there's some info for anyone who's thinking of running their ve on stock de ecu temporarily.
