Asking if your vtec will kick in in reverse is a scary question, lmao
Maybe with a vtec controller? ha ha
correct, stock speedos do have a problem. its a commonly known fact that speedos show a higher speed than actual. the only real way to get your top speed is to have someone stand by the road with a radar gun as you drive past them. that's what motor trend did 4-5 years back. and yes, vtec does kick in reverse, it doesn't matter what gear you're in.
