Default new here vtec on the k24

I was wondering about the k24a4's vtec and I read that it onli has 8 valves worth of vtec coming from the exhaust side. Is there n e way to have vtec work for all 16 valves?

If you swap a k20a2 (rsx type s) head you will have a clearance problem but you can fix that. You can also swap a TSX (k24a2) head as well, but you need different pistons if you plan on going turbo (tsx has higher compression pistons).

I've turbo'd my k24a4 (I assume you have an accord) so if you need help ask. Btw, visit http://www.gen7accord.com for more model specific help on the accords.

Kpro as EMS and 8psi max.

Racingtechnology runs 10psi on their kit and it runs great, but I'm looking for daily driven reliability/safety so...
