I believe the main point of break-in is for you TO KNOW YOUR CAR.
At first I can't believe that the car is so much different and hard to control at first than i thought it would be. The VTEC actually scare the shitz out of at first. Now it still given me a heart stop. hahhaha
KNOWS YOUR CAR!!!! BEFORE YOU DO SOMETHING CRAZY!! LIKE FLY!!!
first vtec was in my accord 02, it's like a turbo, you get all the turbo lags and noise but without the power.(sohc econo-sh9t box)
it was very disappointing compare to mildly built b series, so the idea stuck. The next thing i know i am boosting the paper weight sohc. (which is the only thing it's good for)
after having a boosted car for a while, vtec will never impress you anymore.(especailly when you can have a boosted car with decent gas mileage now a day)
first vtec was in my friends 99 civic SI. not stock at all. that thing screamed in vtec.
first vtec in my s2k was during the test drive. it was a used car, so it was already broken in. it was amazing. i was on rt. 9 in old bridge, nj and he told me to take it up high in the rpm band to see what the car can do.
