Thanks for the newbe recap Mike! I hope someone reads it and learns something.

all I was saying is yes, you should be able to feel it "kick in", weither or not it actually has a kick to it or not, the increase in power is noticable. I have a VAFC to smooth out the powerband of my vtec.

**edit: Although I did learn the RSX has a higher x-over point to give it a bigger kick hehe
