Default thoughts on vtec



buk tasted vtec for the first time today.. i basically stuck the speedo cable into the vss.. and wrapped it with electrical tape

works but the needle is jumpy.. lol

first thing i did is floor the **** outta it and i can tell the difference right away.. especially on the freeway run i took it on...

where before this thing felt like it was breathing through a straw basically now it feels opened up.. definaltly feels alot faster and definatly feels like ill be getting alot better mpg

ive been driving the b16 rex non vtec because of the VSS issue now for the past month and a half or so and damn the difference between the two is night and day

cant wait for the gsr rex to get finished

single cam vtec... overrated.

i did a mini me on my POS 8 valve d15b8 -> d15z6. i jumped form 70 Crank hp to about maybe 110 Whp.. (i also did the basic I/H/E)

although a nice extra 50 or so ponies i got out of it. i can't really feel it stupid Cx transmission.

2nd gear 7k rpms = 80MPH (can't really use vtec... at all really.)

although i must admit my buddies LSV when it hit.. on a DOHC.. it hits HARD. but still overrated IMO
