nice explanation. just to clarify i never said anything about high rpm kick or difference in sound that was in someone elses sound. i have a bullsh*t vx so i know how it feels and sounds.

with a vafc is there a limit to how low u can set the vtec engagement. there has to be some disadvantage to doing that if someone were to

no sohc vtec motor says "vtec" on the cover. if yo ulook right next to your valve cover to the left, you will see a little thingee like a rounded stub tahts about 3 inches tall or so ( i think), thats your vtec solenoid. it has a green wire attached to it, thats the vtec signal wire. if you have it, you have vtec.
as does mine... 5th gen was the only years with the exception of 92 that the covers said VTEC

it's a vtec if it has a brown solonoid on the side and vtec cams, oil sending unit, etc.. I don't think your's is. It's VTEC by the way.

who told you that and how can u back this up? vx redline is 6200 by the way
Thanks for clearing that up, I knew it couldnt have been 5000. Why does the VX tach say it redlines at 5K anyway?

How the f**k did a "Yes/No" question turn into 2 pages of yapping?
The answer is yes, it has VTEC. Look for the green solonoid left of the valve cover.

because it became a yes, but then why and how. Its education in process. I knew VTEC was different in VXs, and I know a girl that has one. Her's is an CVT automatic. I knew a lot about that car because I'm nosy with cars that are different, I like to know whats going on. Thanks handlebarsfsr for that VTEC-E information. I didn't know it worked at that low of rpm level. I'm sure we all learned something, right JDM VX? :mrgreen:
