no need to be scared to VTEC... i do it at least 4-5 times a day or more...so on a full tank of gas that means 12-15 times. I do a lot of driving...

I have 52k miles on my engine, vtec every day as soon as i get three bars. sometimes before then if i can get away with it. I overrev her at the track and autocross regularly while downshifting. The only problems I've had are in the drivetrain; the engine is still in tip top shape like new!

To help you understand, I VTEC if necessary. But not often.

Litto VTEC, approx. 230 miles, full tank.
Lotso VTEC, approx. 180 miles, full tank.

That's why I don't VTEC often...
