Does it really matter that much when VTECH engages??? Its not like nitrous or something...

 

"VTECH" is an electronics manufacturer (i.e. phones,kids toys....etc.) so you are correct in the statement that it is NOT like nitrous. However VTECH is nothing like VTEC either in the case that the cordless phone they make will NOT make the car any faster.

 

why would vtec engage at 5 1/2?... redline is at 6 :eh:

 

im not sure where i read this, but somewhere i saw something like 4680 rpm

 

3500+

 

That's for the V6

As previously stated, the F23 motor (with the exception of the F23A5 Non VTEC) has a VTEC engagement between 4700 & 4900RPM's. But, it depends upon Load, oil pressure & RPM's
The best way to tell is to get an aftermarket intake and listen for a more agressive sound from your engine during those RPM's. Remember, on the SOHC motors, VTEC is on the intake side only.

 

hence the + h: :uhhok:

not to be a newb but ive never really understood what exactly vtec is all i know is that it adds speed/power
