Nope vtec is pointless... no idea why Honda spent the time to develop it *sarcasm*

If it didn't make a difference, why would vtec engines be more desirable? Contemplate on it.

But there is the other argument if it did make a difference then wwhy do a lot of the fast cars run vtec killer cams ? LOL just sayin but in all seriousness of coarse it makes a difference it allows two camshaft profiles for better driveability and then larger lobe for higher hp production.

after 20psi of boost everything on a honda motor is useless.

the pistons, the rods, the crank.

after 20psi of boost you need Titanium rods, Kryptonite alloy pistons, Gold plated piston rings.

Don't forget you have to weld the head to the block so the head gasket wont pop

MOAR BOOST. 20 PSI IS NOT ENOUGH. MUST BE OVER 9000!
