Default Cruising while holding at vtec crossover

Have any1 here ever experience while driving or cruising, at vtec crossover. I have s2 stage 2 with 304 bordermax exhaust. So sometimes i would cruise and hold d fuel at d crossover point. It produces a note- tak tak tak. Kinda cool exhaust note. Any1 here experience it b4? Any bad side effects towards this?

If it is tuned properly, it shouldn't make any difference where you hold a constant rpm level.

Sounds to me like you do not have a fully tuned fuel map.

What are you using to tune with? (ie: Hondata, CROME, etc)

Do you have the VTEC engagement and disengagement points set for the same engine speeds?

I was assuming he didn't do that (it would be pretty dumb), but since this is H-T, you are right to ask. ; )

The prerequisite is load, based on manifold pressure.

The actual value depends on the ROM (and can be adjusted). For a p30 base, it's ~400 mbar.
