I was just curious to see if people experienced the same thing with their setup. I have a jdm gsr with bc3+'s and when vtec engages theres no vtec "pop" or anything. Its very smooth, I know vtec is working though because Ive had it tuned and it pulls hard. Does anyone else have the same experiene with these cams, my gsr cams really kicked vtec in hard. Is there any benefit to having smooth vtec crossover vs a kick. Sorry for the Noob question.

 

yes. there is suppose to be a smooth transistion between the lobes..

you do not want a sudden increase in power.. you want a flat long torque curve.

study some dyno graphs and see what people mean when they say their vtec kicks in hard..

 

that's what's so awesome with the buddy club spec3+'s. smooth vtec transmission is a good thing.

is that better for road racing so you dont fall out of the powerband as easy

 

u wanna have a smooth VTEC enagagment. when u have VTEC come on too ealry it will sound really loud. it may sound loud but u are loosing power. when VTEC is set too high u will reach a certain rpm range that u will be loosing power, then VTEC will come on really hard and u will think ur car is actaully running really strong but in reality u r hurt n the cars performance. having a smooth VTEC enagament (to the point that the corssover is pretty quiet) is where u will make continuous power. u should see dyno graphs where VTEC is set too high or too low and u will notice the difference right away

 

this is kinda O.T, but is this the same with the sk2 pro 1 cams?
