Vtec/turbo

[G2TEG]

I have a 95 GSR engine in my 1992 Acura Integra and I am currently installing a turbo system. I just wanna know do I have to cut off my VTEC if I get the turbo install or can it stay on. I heard about getting a APEX-i SAFC II to change VTEC engagement just need help please!

i have heard from people that you should turn off ur v-tec if you turbo your car, but they probly dont know what the f**k they are talkin about, and dont know what v-tec is, or know how it works. so dont feal too dumb about beliving it. but you dont need to turn it off.

Carbon's hate is completly neccesary here. Sochiro is an idiot and has yet to make an intelligent post.

not one of you guys has helped so you should all shut up..............

as to the original question....... you should keep your vtec system operating. the idea behind vtec is to have higher valve lift at higher rpms..... this allows greater air-flow in and out of the cylinders...... the idea behind a turbo is to force more air into your cylinders.......... so, if you are turbo and are forcing air into your motor, then you should get into vtec asap so that the valves can allow the air to get through.

also, if you disengage your vtec, then you cannot get to the higher rpm ranges of the motor..... the small cam lobes just will not make any power at those speeds...... turbos work best at these high speeds. that's slightly off topic so just take my word for it..........

Thanks for the help Team 4NR. Because I was just wondering cause I have friend whose turbo and VTEC were on at the same time and it messed up his cars timing or something.
