does your vtec scream??

[blue_golep]

just watch youtube seen a lot of vtec clip .. just wondering whether the vtec on a jazz can loud??

[SiReal]

Well its a SOHC VTEC so probably not as loud as the DOHC VTEC(I presume) on the video clip. Only way to get it louder is with a high flow pod + CAI for a little performance gain.

A guaranteed way is to have a CAI (plus pod or cone filter) and...... aggressive cams. For your SOHC VTEC, then you will have no low end, but it will scream up top.

My B18B screams with no vtac.

[sassy_fit_vtit]

mine farts jkz! but seriously it roars but not as much as a dohc

[magii]

dohc roars
sohc purrs :D

[STTICH]

u won hear it for a jazz.. u may..just barely.

its not as or nowhere as close as distinct comparing to B and K series when it kicks in. u probably wouldnt know even if it has engaged as it kicks in b4 3000rpm.

[asiansquad]

it engages at around 2300 rpm but u can't hear till > 3000rpm

[blue_golep]

does the changeover when the vtec kicking noticeable???

I 2nd that..

Pretty much no scream with stock jazz. Every car roars a bit when you rev... so just because the car has a bit more noise doesn't mean it is screaming like the DOHC vtec

[Pogi]

Mine yelps. But thats cos its stock.

>_<

What's your comment on this topic blue_golep?

Do you find yours roar or you can't hear it?
Or are you merely asking other poeple's opinions on their own Jazzes?

I can tell you.. it is not noticeable at all..

[muli]

its not noticable but i reckon as the car puts on kays it becomes abit more noticeable. Turn aircon full blast and take off in your car and you'll notice it i reckon but bloody oath the engine screams

i've done nearly 60,000kms on my jazz and it does make a bit of noise when i floor it on princess hwy. I have some mods so that help too.

There's nothing exciting about L15A's VTEC. As far as i've read from an article written all about L15A, it's not really the genuine Vtec that we all think.

For the Jazz, it's just a feature to enable from 12valves engagement to 16valves engagement. It's pretty much becomes a normal engine when Vtec is engaged. It's just called Vtec for marketing purposes i believe.

And i don't think the Jazz's Vtec alters the valve timing. Correct me if i'm wrong.

VTEC alters valve timing in 1 step. i-VTEC alters valve timing continuously like Toyota's VVTi.
