uh no lol...try driving it when your engine isnt warmed up cause vtec wont work, then drive it when it is warmed up...and youll be able to tell a diff, as well as see it

look at the tach at about 4.5k and watch how fast it gets to redline compared to a non vtec

hmmm....ive also heard a couple rumors about this also. Ive driven two 92 si hatchbacks and they feel gutless compared to my girlfriends 93 si coupe. The funny thing is though that there is a vtec solenoid there and seems to wired up.
