Any CELs? Do you have ENOUGH oil in the car..almost sounds like it gets starved out of oil.

MOST

i would pound it hard and everything would be fine until im hitting about 7k in 4th gear then the cel would come on and vtec goes bye bye

i sold the car and the person who bought it said the speed sensor was melted.......thats the only thing i can think of because i changed the dizzy, wires, wire harness, and ecu to try stop that problem. never worked but i didnt think to check the speed sensor....can someone tell me if that coulda been the problem?

this was a eg hatch gsr

also you could try getting a new vtec solenoid gasket (the one with the screen)
