Default Vtec issue

hey bros just bought a civic with a swapped motor, i think its a k20, with vtec

it pops pretty hard but im lookin for a little more

being a pretty tecnical guy im tryin to do a twin vtec setup so one hits at like 3.5k and the other in the normal spot of the rev band

how tough is this gona be?

about what will it cost and what parts am I going to need other than a second vtec solenoid?

This can be done. Not sure if it can be done in a K series but i could do it right now in my B series if I wanted. The idea is feasible, but DO NOT DO IT because your initial thoughts on how to accomplish this concept are very flawed.

Make sure you put a TWIN VTEC sticker on the side of your car. Maybe you can use your starter solenoid for vtec thats kinda unique.

I have 5 VTECs. One for each gear. Of course I didn't put one on reverse because that would be dumb.
