Yes sir, the car come fully imported from Japan and it's manufactured in 1992. We have a re-cond car here as car from Japan (used) are imported and sold here.

But how do I really know it's a 3 stages? I can only hear a vtec sound at 5200rpm, that's it.

Your english is so much better than 70% of the Americans here I didn't even check your location.

In the first stage of three stage VTEC, only one intake valve is used, allowing better air swirl. Only runs up to I think 2000 RPMs... you wouldn't be able to hear it, and I'm not sure if it would make a power difference either.

Well thank you for the compliment. The thing is, I tried very hard not to make too much mistake in typing as I don't want to look stupid with all the languange mistake..no offence anyone

Back to the main topic, I'm new to this mod world so please bear with me if some of my questions sounds stupid. I've done a few things to the engine and still in the search of more power that I can squeeze from it.

h:

P&P, engine balancing and high compression. Other than force induction, what else can I do.

Question, will there, theoretically, be any -ve effect (i.e detonation for example) if I try to use the B16 ecu of D15. Need to know before I try as I couldn't afford the consequences.

Thanks to all for the feedback.:thumbup:
