Re: vtech rpm?

VTEC, not vtech.

Did the car have a VTEC controller before?

Re: vtech rpm?

Tiptronic has always been pretty laggy in all the cars I've been in/driven. Anyways VTEC is RPM dependent and is actuated by the ECU -- if you claim that is okay, then there's little else. While camshaft timing plays a direct part in VTEC manipulation of the valves, it does not itself initiate the coupling of VTEC lobes. In other words, if your timing was incorrect, your car would run poorly but VTEC would engage at the correct RPM.

The reason I bitch about it is becuase it makes you look like a complete noob to Hondas.
