I wouldnt drive around at 70mph in 3rd gear for hundred of miles but in general yes you can and you better vtec it all the time.

 

agreed

i asked my girlfriend the other day what vtec was, she said i dont know and i dont care, i just like when it get REAL loud!

 

You can do 65 in second. In an 00-03, I believe that you top out at 58 in the 04's.

 

You made me think of something Quik - I have always been one to buy a kick butt, ear poppin, annoying-to-everyone-around-me sound system , but since I've had the S - I don't listen to my radio anymore

Anyone else do this?

 

i play a cd of a recorded turbo charged motor so when im driving people think i have a turbo and blow off valve

 

Same here. I went from a HUGE Fosgate system (one of those that you couldnt sit in the car without wanting to throw up) to the S....yes it dont ahve the same affect but once I hit vtec.....lovely!

 

LOL Checkered...why not get the fake BOV? You can have it set at any given RPM to blare off like a turbo

 

OHHHHH I didn't know about the fake BOV


Is it easy to take on and off?

 

Just use some common sense. Reving higher will wear the engine out faster, but the engine will probably still last longer than you will own it. Just make sure to change the oil and check the level frequently. When driving normally short shift to save gas and be "stealth". When you want to GO, rev the baby to redline!

FYI, before you redline, there is a cold engine rev limiter. It will limit you to about 6k until you have 2-3 bars on you engine coolant temp. guage.

 

The fake BOV is about $175 and you can have it turned on and off easily. You can either program it to blare off at a certian RPM or by button. It's what they used in the movie Fast & Furious.
