It's useless. All it will do will change the VTEC crossover point, without compensating with fuel. Without dyno tuning, there is no way for you yourself to know where the ideal crossover RPM is. You will lose horsepower without adding extra fuel combined with the fact your new crossover will now be too high or too low.

It's useless.

He didn't ask if it was useful, he asked HOW IT WORKED. Way to be an azz about it.

If anything, mine is the more useful post in this read. I'm trying to turn him away from a product that is a waste of money, and would do more harm than good, while you haven't attributed anything yet.

Is this something you're just wondering how it works? Or are you actually interested in buying one?

It's a useless product because of the vast after market tuning support we have for our ECU's. Crome, eCtune, Hondata, etc. All of these are going to be far superior tuning tools than a VTEC Controller. Plus, you're going to need to be on a dyno to actually see what a change in VTEC crossover will do to the tq and hp curve. If you're going to be on a dyno, and you have an engine set up that needs a tune, you might as well be running something that actually works well and has features.
