That would be 6K Barry.........

 

Sorry Barry, I was away for a bit, The cold limiter on my car kicks in at about 6800-7000 just enough to give you a kick and then throw you into your seatbelt when the engine shuts off. So yes the VTEC does work when cold.

You must have 3 bars of temp on your gauge, or else the limiter is in effect. I have not yet found this in the manual and nobody told me about it. I usually let the car warm up well, and on the day this happened to me it was cooler out so it obviously took longer to warm up . . .

Thanks, cmnsnse. Now for the second part of my question. Some folks here believe their VTEC system no longer works and the second cam profile doesn't kick in. I think people think that this has to do with synthetic oil or the map sensor or a mechanical problem or an ECU problem.....whatever.

Supposing you had deactivated the VTEC switchover, how high could you rev, 7,500? What do you think?

I agree, except I'm also concerned for people I don't know as well.
