Addicted to VTEC
 

A friend of mine brought up an interesting point today....he told me i was addicted to VTEC....and now that i actually think about it i am....not only with my S but when i had my ITR's and my Si....i cannot drive anywhere without hitting vtec...anyone else have this problem....i doubt im the only one..

It's an added bonus to an already fast sports car...except you have to hit 7,000 RPM's to get it going.

hi, my name is wanabe...
i have been using for 3 and a half years now.
cant get enough. cant stop. beginning to shake now!
i admit i have a problem.
addicted to vtec!

I love the transition of the VTEC how you can feel the car coming into VTEC. Just has to realize that you have to shift because it comes up a lot faster after that.

First time I did it in my S2000 (which is the first time I VTEC'd anything), I was giddy for about a day.

I haven't been the same since.

Mine kicks in at 6500 RPM and when it was new it would kick in at 6000 RPM. I miss fresh V-Tec

Is that normal for it to kick in later in the revs as the car get older?

i dont think vtec ages as the car gets older. its set. you hear vtec because of the lobes on the cams. he probably had a vafc or some sort of engine management that lets you adjust the vtec. usually vtec is changed while tuning, my friend had a delsol b16. he got a piggyback for his ecu(hondata). i remember they had to adjust his vtec (to a higher rpm )to make more power depending on your mods. i really miss that car, i wonder if i have a vid of his car hiting vtec. i dont think an s2 vtec changeover can compare to his. his vtec poped 10x louder than mine and i have cai. i remember driving my gsr hatchback w/ ctr cams, it still cant compare to s2. the s2 sounds cleaner than a dual butterfly manifold which i had on my hatch.

My vtec kicks in at 6000 when it was new, and 6000 now that it's 2 years old.

it's like a mini turbocharger :horns:
