Guys

I made the mistake of trying to VTEC whilst the engine was cold (1 bar). However the engine cut at approx 6000rpm

is this normal?

Thanks

 

yes it is normal. it has a rev limiter to prevent vtecing on cold engine

 

Wait till 3 bars in an AP1 and 6-7 on AP2 before you vtec

 

You just reduced your engine life by half.!!!

 

Are you kidding? Your s2ki age is more than 2 years, so surely you are, but just in case... you should take some time to read:

By the way.. the cold-rev-limiter is normal... use of the word "whilst" is not.
