Have you gotten it tuned? If you haven't gotten it tuned, you're air/fuel ratio may be innappropriate at the time when VTEC engages, and you can lose power. I know exactly the feeling that you are getting. The car continues to rev up, but once VTEC hits, the powerband sinks. It was like this when my friend put a set of Skunk2 cams in his Integra, and test ran it untuned.

How the hell can he tune an fmu?

FMU is your problem. Get some real engine management.

exactly.

Anyone, who's read any turbo post on Honda-Tech knows that when a turbo has been installed on a car, in order for said turbo car to run properly, one must go to their local tuner shop, and spend a bucket of cash to tune said turbo car.

This is popular opinion. Though people may chime in and say that they've run for years untuned, a good tune will probably solve YOUR specific problem.

slightly better than a simple fmu. not bad for low boost. you definitely want something better for reliability.
