last night me and a couple of buddys of mine were chillen in wendys parkin lot and some kids in rice buckets pull up ( evo, rsx type s, and 95 civic ex w/
h22a vtec swap i think thats a prelude engine) of course they start talkin **** that they can beat anything out there, the evo was pretty sick tho had alot of motor work dun and bigger turbo, but anyway i raced the type s all it had was exhaust, headers, cai and tune. when we first pulled up to each other he pulled up over me by 1 car length i think vtec kicks in at 5k i dont no but anyway yea when i shift to 2nd n 3rd i pulled on him by 3 lengths so yea the the type s was done, then the civic pulls next to me that car was a joke, sounded like complete **** but yea i had him by at least 4 car lengths

 

Nice kills, but if the RSX had a tune (Hondata) he would have beat you from a roll no doubt. If the EG coupe civic actually had a h22a in it, yes it is indeed the prelude engine then he should of beat you also from a roll. Those cars arent a joke from a roll, dead stop they are toast. What mods do you have?

 

Nice runs.

The VTEC is constant, its just the computer optizmizing the timing constantly and reading how you are driving to give it the best TQ curve all the time.

 

Now we sound like idiots... but I think that is iVtec
Regular Vtec is more like haveing an aggressive cam when you need it, and as conservative cam for everyday driving... us mustangs have to pick one or the other lol
My Buick Rendezvous has Variable timing... and so do the 05+'s?

 

yea i really like the k20a's in the rsx type s a friend of mine has a garrett tubro and had the best tune ever and put out 30 pounds of boost its crazy and there dohc but i have flowmaster 40's, pi head/intake/cam swap, 410's, diablo tune and t/b + plenum

 

not sure, my wife's accord is Vtec and i read in her book on what it was, i know what is stood for but not really knew what it did, and that's what it said.

but it still doesn't make her car any faster, haha.

 

variable valve timing electrronic control i think lol im not to sure what it does ethier i think after certain rpm range it does something i dont i have no idea i gota ask the 1 guy who drives the si lol

 

if a honda guy goes in this thread hell die laughing at us for trying to figure out how vtec works lmao

 

that's what i was thinking, though when they pull up on you at a light and want to race you, then your thinking "what the hell, does he not know...i'll have to school him...." but they never learn, haha.

here's some info, i read it for about a second and thought screw it, i'll just post it.

and we'll laugh at honda guys for talkin about why they always loose to mustangs in there threads

 

ok guys, Vtec works off of oil pressure!!!! It's got a 12volt supply to it which activated the soleniod. The only way it will activate is by the oil pressure..ie: low oil your vtec will not work, also if the car isnt warmed up it will not work. The new k20's are a iVtec...which is the same as regualr vtec.

BTW a stock K20 will not hold 30psi unless its built. It doesnt matter how good of tune it is on. What turbo kit was it?

 

hhhmmmm ok, but that doesn't tell me what it does. but i can read the link i posted butttttt i'm not.

 

it was ethier garrett or greddy im not sure i no his compression is 8.5:1 or sumthin i dont even no all i no is hondas are rice buckets and mustang are sick as ****!!
