VTEC is basically the camshaft switching over to different lobes to give it more power. So from 800(Idle)-4499/4999 it is not in VTEC, and from 4500-5000(I believe those are the actual engagement RPMS, depends on engine) to Redline they are in VTEC.

So...

800-4499/4999 = Not in VTEC
4500/5000-Redline = VTEC

What about if your using a different activator without the z6 computer and with a a6 dist. He has some sort of little box with a yellow thing plugged into it and he said he has different ones with different numbers on them. I'm just asking becase his car is barely faster then my stock si even when I drive his and he drives mine.
