Default Oversized Vtec SOlenoid

all the vtec selenoid does is lock up the vtec rockers....it's not going to sound any different. If you put in some different cams, etc, then you would "hear" a difference.

yes, it's called a JDM vtec solenoid. The extra voltage though this line will cause you to "open harder." however you need the JDM wiring harness to handle this capacity. along with everything else JDM to make this JDM vtec solenoid work. And you need the JDM battery too. And you must put the JDM battery on the right side. you also need a giant foot up ur ***. but it has to be JDM.

Basically they're saying not to do this mod, as it's not going to make a difference. If you're trying to get a harder "kick" when you crossover, go with a bigger intake cam. Adding a Jspec solenoid won't make a noticeable difference.

can imagine seeing an N1 muffler sized solenoid hooked up, delivering the "death blow" VTEC crossover
