Default VTEC points

I've been searching on the internet and through other forums on this site, but i still can't seem to find the correct numbers on when VTEC kicks in for Integra GSR. I've heard it has two stages at certain rpms, and that it kicks in at others, but i have no clue what the truth is. Anybody know when it kicks in?

VTEC also depends on oil pressure, load on your engine, temp.

Yeah, i dont know if i was just tripping, but one time i had 4 people in my GSR and when i mashed it didnt feel like vtec was even kicking in. Might have been to much load on the tranny or somethin

that is one of the dumbest posts i have ever seen. there is a reason why honda set it at 4400. unless you have a highly modified engine, you don't need to just change it to whatever sounds good
