B16/B18? What are your mods? Earlier VTEC on a stock motor does nothing.

If your motor is completely stock, then nothing.

Oh, and setting your VTEC earlier won't help you at all. The folks at Honda knew exactly what they were doing when they decided on a specific RPM for V-TEC to kick in on your specific motor.
