Default gsr vtec que

i searched for this and read that vtec kicks in at 4500 and iabs at 5800 but you dont feel the "pull" untill 5800.

in my car i dont feel any changes untill i git 5k exactly..it pulls more and it sounds louder but thats it theres no changes at 5800 or 4500..i was just wonderin is that normal or was the wiring messed up or something i dunno i'm j.w thanks for any info

if you have a gsr with a chipped p28 or something then the secondary butterflies will not work and be stcuk close. get a p72 gasr ecu and hook up the iabs

If you don't have any CELs, then there shouldn't be anything wrong.

ok i'm runnin a obd1 p72 ecu it was a auto ecu but i converted it to 5sp

i have no cels i only had one before and that was 19 but it went away after the conversion. my car relines at 7600 like it should and it run fine i just dont know why i only feel a difference and that rpm only not above or less 5k

i think you are just expecting way to much from your gsr. it vtec works at 5k and you know that all the wiring was done then dont worry bout it

yea but its jsut that reading about all that engaements makes me thkink that maybe he didn't wire up my iabs? would that cause that "pull" at 5k?

i'm think i'm going to go back there and ask them cause i'm bothering me now

Car should redline higher. Perhaps your tach is off.

you probably have a ls ecu. Usdm gsr came in 5 speed only so you would not have to do the conversion. Also I had a Ls ecu in my old gsr and it revved to 7600 too.
