I wish! My USDM H22 Engages VTEC @ 5,700, and from what I hear, that is Stock for 4th Gen Preludes. This was even before I changed ECU.

tachs are off. Get a V-AFC if you want to see it. Plus there is a difference between when VTEC engages and when it actually 'hits' it's a mechanical system.

The answers are in the Helms if you doubt me.

I heard stuff about tachs being off too. However, my VTEC engages exactly when the tach hits 5,200 rpm, that is also when VTEC is suppose to kick in on a H22a4. Does this mean my tach isn't off 400 rpm like what I hear about tachs being inaccurate by that much?

I don't know, your tach is off. I don't have an h23 VTEC...I have an h22a...

how would a dizzy change the tach...i would have to say no. and yes the tach is off 200-400 rpm depending where your rpm's are at. the higher you rev the more your tach is off

w/ my h22 vtec kicked in at 5400, but you need to get a VAFCII or something. Its fun having vtec hit whenever. Mines set for 4800, nice and smooth all the way to the top of the band.
