well if your question was clearly stated, maybe you would get better replies.


And quit trying to up your post count. You responded 4 times in a row, when you could have edited, quoting the same reply twice

No wonder you're at 96%

EDIT - You quoted the same reply THREE times....

excuse me??? ummm......just STFU please.

PMed you with a good enough answer to your "question".

 

What have you done to the motor..that will be a better indication of when to set the vtec crossover.

 

dyno is ur answer, from there u can see where the best point of engagement is

zex 59300 and cam gear going in wednesday
vtec controller shortly after that..

 

Honda put the crossover point there for a reason, It's not just a random number. Stock is always the best. There's been debate over this number before. I wouldn't lower it too much, I wouldn't go below 4900 personally.

 

Not to start an argument, but, on my HX the VTEC engagment is around 4,500 and redline is at 6,800.

Many people feel that the only way to change the vtec point of engagment is if you have serious modifications done to your car and your fuel/air ratio is significantly different. Honda techs. spent many hours figuring that out and it shouldn't be messed with unless you have access to a dyno and you can figure it out from there. I've heard everything from "VTEC controllers didn't help my car at all" to "my vtec controller took a second off my 1/4 mile time."

Your choice. Dyno and tune. Tuners these days have forgetten the critical nature of tuning.

 

thanks hatchback19! i will keep that in mind

mrillegalx-cool why 6800 redline? is that the factory redline on a hx? j/c

 

Yes, that's factory redline.

 

Just leave it stock,, where Honda put it.

hehe

 

this thread made me laugh. i agree, i wasnt sure if the question was english or not.

and one word, DYNO

 

dyno sounds good

but also, keep in mind that the vtec crossover should be reasonable, with correct oil pressure, and enough fuel too
