i just add more power to my vtec by tapping a power source frm my car stereo to the vtec wires to make it kick at 3000 rpm and all the way with a touch of a button.....so is that a good idea or not....will it do any harm to my car later on.

 

thats kind of a hillbilly way of doing things.....your better off doing thing the right way....so Im gonna go with "no" thats a silly idea

 

why 3000 rpm???

This seems pretty stupid to me, why not get a vtec controler and do it the right way, depending on your mods you might gain from setting the vtec higher than stock, not lower.

 

If you engage VTEC at 3000 on a DOHC VTEC engine, you will lose power until the VTEC is supposed to engage. The oil pressure may also be insufficient to properly engage the system at the low RPM anyway. Don't play with what you don't understand.

A quick excerpt from the article I mentioned... reminds me of this guy...

<TABLE WIDTH="90%" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 ALIGN=CENTER><TR><TD>Quote &raquo;</TD></TR><TR><TD CLASS="quote"> Well I'm sure we've all seen the windshield banners, stickers, emblems, tattoos, and just about anything else you could possibly put on display bearing the word VTEC. It's just one of those things you know. Oh let's listen in on the typical VTEC conversation.

"Hey bro check out my Civic EX, I got big massive "VTEC" logo painted on both sides yo!"
"Daaayam! That's tight bro!"
"Hellz yeah biaatch! Now everyone will KNOW what's up!"
"How fast you runnin?"
"Shiiat, I don't know, prolly 14s. I'll be hittin 13s after my next mod tho."
"That'd be down bro, what's it gonna be?"
"I be gettin this new thing, where I can have my VTEC turned on ALL THE TIME!! HAHA!! No more waitin for that shiznit I'll be able to bust it out non stop yo!!"
"WHOA!!! That's crazy yo, how you gonna control that"
"Whatch you talkin about I can handle it, just cuz you don't got a 13 second demon don't mean you got to be hatin!"
"What?! I didn't say nothin! You too big to talk your bros now that you got this all time VTEC?"
"Pshh, you don't even know, once I start up that monster and hit VTEC at 2000 RPM I'll waste yo ayass, yo mama's ayass, shiaat, EVEEBODIES AYASS!!!"

After that, the guy with the fancy paintjob lost the next race...and the next one...and every race he ever raced again. A paintjob and a load of stupidity strangely didn't get him as far as he wanted to go. </TD></TR></TABLE>

no comment(WTH)

 

If your engine and ecu is stock , I HIGHLY Recommend that you Leave vtec where it is at. THose Honda Guys put Vtec at the perfect point for gas mileage and power up top. DONT mess with it.

 

How much has your MPG improved? We had a 88 Honda CRX that we moved the Cam just 1 tooth forward...and afterwards it pulled so hard it would torque steer, and the best thing...it went from 48mpg to 52mpg So I think that turning your vtec to always on is just replicating pretty much what we did.

 

Stop posting this BS... you have two posts (ton threads that you have dug up from the depths of the forum and necro bumped for no reason) that appear to be troll-like... and what you are saying is TOTALLY UNTRUE and scientifically flawed. People here need solutions... be a part of that solution instead of a part of the problem.
