ok, first, i have never just run my engines hard when theyre cold, no matter how crappy the car was, or how much of a hurry im in, ive never done it. second, where do you find the power source for this vtec light you wired up? an lastly, vtec isnt the next phase of rice, vtec is a stronger building platform. the concept of changing how nasty your cam is while youre driving down the road is a dream come true. plus, there is so much room for expansion, the same mods as non-vtec, plus a lot more....
