I guess it's not a street car anymore :dw:
right, that's why I was asking about the VTEC solenoid, you can hook 12 volts to it, so it's always engaged, even with the stock cams, and it's a dog at low RPM, it sounds cool, all raspy and rough, but the high profile at 2000 RPMS doesn't do much on the street.03 DSG Snake said:I guess it's not a street car anymore :dw:

Some of the guys, or all of them, lmao :beer:modmatt98cobra said:yeah i will for sure we were talking about it today ......................and some of the guys he wants to take out this summer. lol
actually, its called "Vtec-less", the car is in "vtec" mode all the time, so you don't feel a change at some RPM...Phase1GSR said:Yah alot of fast Hondas dont even use thier vtec. They use cams called VTEC killer cams which eliminate vtec.
BBriBro said:whats going on with the valvetrain? Where is the VTEC solenoid ? I thought maybe it wasn't installed yet, but it looks like a blockoff plate has been fitted, also, I see one anodized cam end cap, but not on the other one, I guess the engine just isn't finished, but what about the VTEC, is it common to disable it? I suppose it's OK for a race car, but man there would be no low end torque on the high lobe only.

actually i was talking about the same cams... but its a domestic forum so never mindNasty Notch said:He was talking about the cams that do away with VTEC, which are called VTEC killers. And like he said, most high HP hondas use them(at least the bunch that I've seen)
Sweet looking project, definately get vids up ASAP, thats going to be a fun car
