Don't do this. It is not a way to cheap power, trust us.

You'll just screw up your mix and the ECU will try to compensate. (Don't forget, there are O2 sensors at the exhaust, and a MAP sensor at the TB contributing to "Making the right mix".)

oh ok, thanks for the replys, i have one other question tho, when i accelerate i get vibrations and a wierd knocking sound. could that just be the cams hitting the valves? when the engine warms up a bit and when the vtec kicks in that sound goes away.

Try checking your oil.
