My 02 s2000 kicks very hard at vtec. The hotter it is outside the more i feel it! When its really hot outside above 90 car seems slow til 6000 rpm.....then bammmmmmmmmmmm
hits real hard. If ya can't feel the difference take it to the dealer
and have it check.

To quote the Netscape review of the S2000 from the earlier post by dierk:
"Cost considerations aside, none of the Honda's competitors delivers the awesome surge of motive force that slams you in the seat when the tach swings past 6,000 and the VTEC variable valve-timing system begins dialing in more aggressive cam timing and lift. At 6,000 rpm, those others are at or near their limit, but the S2000 is just starting to stretch its legs. It bullets forward like you've hit the nitrous bottle, wailing like a 1000cc sport bike as it passes 8,000 rpm. "
Nothing subtle about that!
