Have you tried tuning or a street tune? Adjust the vtec to engage at 1000 one the first run and then change it to 8000 on the second run,when you feel the smooths cross over, you should beable to find the best cross over.... also 4500 seems to low to engage into vtec, I have mine set at 5500 on uberdata with ctr cams where I again an extra 4hp when vtec cross over
