Hmm, never seen or heard anything like that before. Why do you want it to sound louder? i/h/e will gain few hp and make your car sound louder if that's what you actually want.

My friend and I have always joked about hooking vTak up to the radio....

Take off your exhaust Manifold, you'll get all manner of screaming louder

hook up a bullhorn or PA system to the intake.

I don't know who it is that starts the rumor/idea that a wire can alter the sound of an engine, or that by using a different solenoid you can somehow magically change the physical properties of the VTEC lobe on camshafts (and thus make VTEC "kick harder"), but whoever it is needs to have "STUPID" stamped to their forehead.

Seriously though... The only basic stuff you can do is i/h/e, which do NOT actually make the VTEC "kick harder" or become louder. The OEM i/h/e is just good at surpressing sound. The sound coming from inside of the engine is just the same... you'll just have less things blocking the sound.

I bet that would be depressing. Honda's dieing at middle-age. Kind of the feeling I get when I watch the animal channel, and see all those neglected, and abused pets. Boo hoo.

I would respectfully suggest you take that wire and attach it to your friend's "Manly parts" and let him understand first hand what we think of his idea.

You've been snooker'd friend, don't believe all you hear

the only way the vtec switchover point would be louder is if your high rpm cam lobe is much different than the low rpm cam lobe. I know the j30a in the 6th gen accord has a very audible switchover point if you put an aftermarket intake on it (stock intake has resonators all over it to quiet that motor down) the integra type r has a pritty audible switchover as well. There is no way to make it more audible than it is with an aftermarket intake other than getting new cams

Do not believe in your friend. He either doesn't know what he was saying or was just trying to fool you.

btw... read this...
my friend with a 96 lx 5sp, was talking to his neighbor (guy owns a chevy lumina) about his accord and stuff... and this is what his neighbor said:
"... but... if you want to feel a lot of power at high speed... and you are already on 5th gear... just start over... shift to first... and then.... second... you might hear a little noise... but that is just the engine pushing all the power..."
..seriously... the guy said that.... ....what a muthaf**ka.... ...trying to make my friend destroy his engine out there.....

you could always ground the switch to an A-rabs nuts to get a nice high-pitched "LA-LA-LA-LA-LA-LA-LA-LA-LA-LA-LA!!!!"

First you have to ground your VTEC wire to your muffler belt, then tighten the lugnuts on the carb. Who are these proplr and what planet do they come from ? Iowa?

That's a tough one, this one would be considered way over the top even in The Peoples Republic of California. Not Canadian either I suspect. If he were, he'd be using words like "Hoser" and he'd have an avatar of a Mountie or a lumberjack maybe.

Maybe a recent release from the Barbara Streisand Clinic for the Criminally Stupid?

Perhaps a campaign volunteer for the Ted Kennedy re-election Committee?

That would make some sense of all this
