VTEC - costs you power.

VTEC - set at 6000rpm so that you have decent(ish) fuel economy at cruising speeds.

my car was A LOT slower when i took the stock airbox off. i put it right back on as soon as i got home. all that hot air is no bueno. the stock engineering on that car is too good for cheap mods like that. hell, half the after market shit for our cars is worse than stock as far as for making power.

Yeah when I took mine off the power loss was very noticeable too. Eff that.

AS for vtec, sometimes it feels like it hits real hard, sometimes it feels a little less. I dont know. Every car Ive ever driven always feels faster on some days then others, im weird
