VTEC with that ecu engages ar 2500 rpm so you aint going to hear anything engaging at high rpm, it should sound like its already in VTEC though!

Well is there a different ecu that will help it? I mean I know there isn't much help with the z1 it being an economy motor but it should have better power than the b7 and it doesnt
