Icon2 2005 Accord v6

Well, driving my girlfriends car, and then driving mine made me wonder... My "vtec" engages around 5500 rpms on my ITR, and in her car there doesnt seem to be a point at which vtec engages... J30A4 or A5 cant remember.. Car is an automatic, but I dont believe that has anything to do with it... Might be a dumb question and please refrain from bashing or flaming... I really just am curious to expand my knowledge.

Thanks guys **and gals**

its a great car with an insanely free revving engine. My only wish is if this was manual it would have been a delicious car to rip..and traction control is pretty annoying sometimes!

If it's completely stock you probably can't hear it. In my stock Civic EX it is VERY hard to hear the vtec crossover.

The VTEC kick is around 1000rpm away from the redline.

You can't hear it all the time, but if you have the car in D3 and you're at around 3/4 throttle you can hear it.
