If its something I can fix, i would rather not

What is your criterias for it not engaging? Does it rev to redline? Are you using WOT?

darkfx Mar 24, 2006 02:10 PM

WOT and non.. It achieves the 9k redline, no idle issues, it runs just like always, sans the vtec

How do you know the VTEC is not engaging? I believe that without VTEC it takes a long time and the car struggles to reach the 9k redline?

if it is, it got alot quieter

Shadow_S2K Mar 24, 2006 02:33 PM

Maybe you just got use to it?

if the solenoid was broken it wouldnt allow you to take it to red line when i broke the sensor on mine it would the rpms would stop at 7k does it only do it when the car is cold?
