Just curious. Nothing is wrong with mine at all but just curious if it was mess anything up or drive fine if I unplug the vtec solenoid and take it for a spin. Kind of interested to see what a non vtec s2000 will feel like lol.
Will it cause any issues that I am tuned with a vafc?
If there is any shot what so ever of it not being I won't but as dumb as it sounds kinda want to see what it feels like.

 

actually i dont think anything will happen you would just get a check engine light stating ur vtec solenoid is bad my buddy had an accord and his vtec was not working at all but it didnt mess up is car at all jus super slow lol he eventually got it fixed tho

 

plus the car goes on limp mode when the check engine light comes on.

 

Ok thanks. Gonna skip out on it then lol.

 

Yeah. Unplugged VTEC = no solenoid engagement = no higher lift cam = worse-breathing engine over 6k RPM = less air = more fuel = super rich over 6k RPM.

Therefore, no damage, no knock.

 

hmm thats interesting!

 

i'm pretty sure driving in limp mode wont even let you rev high enough to reach the vtec crossover point. having said that, staying out of vtec with the solenoid plugged in does the exact same thing.

 

 

you have the vafc, set the vtec crossover super high instead of messing with the solenoid. when satisfied, just reset it back to the previous settings.

 

i thought it only goes into limp mode when the CEL is blinking.
