Doing away with VTEC
I found this very intresting.
TODA offers a package that basically turns the VTEC head into non-VTEC. It uses what appears are "regular" camshafts.
Its for racing only it says..probablysince the idle cant be too good.
So basically then its like a non-VTEC head with HUGE cams and a good port and polish (bigger intake valves too)
Here's the link...about half way down the page called VTEC KILLER http://www.todaracing.com/B16A.html
BTW: I dont mean to start some flame war - just found it intresting how VTEC is so "praised" but TODA decided to get "rid" of it.

I think a couple of members on here have those already. The idle is 2K, and power delivery is from 5 through 12. I didnt read your link, this is just what I have heard already and see in other articles.
Yes thats true the gains are from 5000+ but thast about where VTEC usualy comes in anyway correct?
Hmm...makes me wonder - would a non-VTEC head (CRV/LS) head actually be better with the proper port/polish, bigger intake valves, and some HUGE cams then a VTEC head?

The only reason we have VTEC is so we can have an engine that's drivable and powerful. If you have a racecar which doesnt see traffic, then why have 2 sets of cams? That's where the killers come in.
