yes i have test drove a prelude once and when vtec kicked in it was like a whole different car. it was almost amazing and it almost got my money because of that.

 

when i used to have my second gen db2....i believe it kicked in at 5700, but i might never know cuz the person i bought mine from swapped in a 90-91 ls gauge cluster....prolly for lower milage. i crashed my car a few days before i received the jdm cluster. would the rpms still be correct? i was able to take the car well past the visual redline till 8000....the end of the tach.

 

hmmmm....ON my 95 gs-r, I can't hear any difference in the engine when I reach 6000 rpm..........does that mean somethingis wrong ?

 

same here

 

Not go over 4000 rpms?? should of just gotten an RS if you not gonna punch it..

Dont deny yourself pleasure... Your car will love you for it:thumbup:

 

Nicely stated

 

Wow, I hate to point it out, but you spelled VTEC as vtech...whats up with that?? We all make mistakes.

Anyways yes that is true, type-R's do not have dual engagement, but you can acheive this same thing on a GSR by getting a skunk2 intake manifold. Only thing is that your check engine light will then stay on forever. I have this and it annoys me.

 

You can easily tell when the sound and tone of your engine change, it's much deeper in VTEC. Hook up a vtec light if you can't tell by ur self, I personally think it's lame.
