has anyone feel their vtec engaging? i been threw b series and d series and you can feel and hear vtec, but with the j-series, is it that it's just too much torque to feel it anymore or hear it anymore?

dont really notice it when you are NA , but boosted or supercharged you do see a difference.

you can most definitely hear it with a 3" intake...

it's still SOHC vtec, so it is never as aggressve of a crossover as the Bs or other DOHC VTECs

ok, thanks you guy, i guess i will have to dyno it to find out if my vtec is engaging or not cause i have a 3 inch straight pipe and 3 inch intake and when i just step on it in 6th gear going 60mph all the way to 5k rpm and nothing changes. so i will go dyno it
