Default B16 Vtec

Hi there,

I have a B16A2 with Type R cams in my EG si hatch. I have a P30(?) B16A2 ECU. My VTEC kicks in on the tach at 6K RPM. Is this the stock setting? Is my tach too fast, lagging? I'm new to VTEC.

Yeah, that's what I hear most people say. Could my tach be off? Or something else? What else?

stock vtec engagement is at 5500k. just a suggestion but you might wanna try and see where your rev limiter is at also. i believe the rev limiter is around 8200k. that should help to see if it's your tac or not.

It is not uncommon for stock tachs to be off a few hundred, especially in the higher RPM's.
