I currently have a MySQL database because for whatever reason the install file would not let me create a MySQLi despite the fact I know 100% it is supported.

With that being said would I be able to do a database transfer from sql to sqli in the future when I get everything figured out? Say when I upgrade to 3.8.0?

MySQLi is an extension I beleive for MySQL. If you have it installed, you should be able to change the setting in the config.php file to mysqli and not have any problems.

Oh ok, so if there is already an sql database made on my host server I don't need to run any vbulletin install files I can just change config.php to sqli and everything will be fine?

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
