Default This ain't your daddy's VTEC!!!

Did some driving yesterday and after two weeks of having the car I put 600 miles on her. Well, also VTEC'd it for the first time and This car is nothing like my old Prelude (2000, non SH)!!!!

It throws you back almost like a car with high tork. I was not expecting it to be like it is. Honda r0x0rs. I mean I didn't do a drop or anything, I just started out around 2K and let it run through the rev range and at 6K ... WOW!




Anyway, just wanted to say that 2.2 VTEC is Awesome, how is the 2.0 VTEC? Is it as strong?

in terms of "feeling" or the "butt-dyno", i feel more "kick" when vtecing in my 03 than in an 04 that I test drove.

i repeat, this was just my "butt-dyno"

04 definitely had more juice around 4-5K rpm.
