thanks crxb16er, i knew how it worked. i just never thought about it really for the fuel economy really. whenever i hear someone talk about VTEC its always about the power. So to me and the race guys out there.. i still dont get VTEC. for the people who wanna pass someone on the highway, i get it, but not for the guys going onto the track or wanting power all the time

If you want to go fast all the time.. you should just do like you said with a ZC and change cams. i dont understand its facination with the import world, like your not cool if you dont have VTEC (not saying you are doing that or anything)..

but i agree with you about the honda engineers doing a great job on an economy car engine. i just still dont see thing big deal with VTEC, does that make sense?
