It's not as noticeable with a stock intake as it is with an aftermarket one.

problem could be in your signature it says exhaust leak...maybe fix that, tho the only car i know to be super loud when vtec kicks in is a RSX. Most other cars unless you have cams and an intake arent quite as loud.

You haven't heard the Type R or the S2000 crossover into VTEC have you? any DOHC VTEC motor you can hear crossover into VTEC.

listen to a RSX compared to a Prelude... you will hear a major difference with a vtec crossover...ive never personally sat in a s2000 but i know RSX have one of the loudest crossovers. Its ridiculous. Im not to impressed with the type-r unless its running cams but when they do its sick as **** also...but stock i have to say RSX by far...but like i said ive never personally rode in a s2000 so thats the only car i cant compare.

I got a V2 intake and damn it is loud, realllly noticeable. When I go through tunnels or anything like that..damn it makes it is sooooooo fun to hit VTEC...very very addicting. Also, my exhaust is very quiet so most of the sound comes from under the hood. I hate loud annoying exhaust.
