Yeap, each motor is different, but if you are messing around with your own ems, then it's a trial and error w/o having a dyno. I wouldn't even bother unless you are on a dyno, and know what your doing, otherwise you will most likely slow your car down.

I'm sure I hace stock cams and I have aem cam gears but on my dyno chart when the vtec hits I either lose or level off for like 2-300 rpms b4 it shoots up. I wanted to drop the setting down a little so it would be a smoother kick, It's set at 5600 now.
