but hey its different for every car depending on engine of coarse
agree! depending on the engine, vtec engagement points are different. I had a del sol (b16a) and vtec kicks in at 5,000rpm's where as my current car which is a honda integra vti-r (b18c) vtec kicks in at 6,000rpm. this is not an approximate figure but just a rough estimate from me looking at the tachometre when vtec begins to scream :) These are figures from standard engines with an airfiter. As for the other model honda's, i don't know as i'm only speaking with experience. most of you know the crx's and civic vti-r's both have the same engines. With the sohc's i am not sure but from what afew is talking about above, the engagement point at 3,000rpm's and that sounds way too early. my crx with a uni filter seemed to scream alot louder than my integra with a K&N though, anyone know how i could get the same vtec noise out of my b18c as i got from my b16a?
badsector - perhaps by posting in the relevant forum you may find more answers to your question. You may find your answer in the technical forum.
In the Jazz forum we are concerned with info relevant to L15As, sometimes the K20A and on the rare occasion, the L13A.
Jus-10 jazz comes in L13As?
which ones comes with L13As and which ones are the L15As?
about the vtech on the jazz, i think its really pussy. i dun really feel anything besides the engine roaring like a vtech. for one it has the sounds
There is no 'H' in vtec.....you'll get flamed big time if some of the other guys catch you :p
The L13A is in the GLi. It is the DSi engine (8 valve SOHC with twin plugs per cylinder)
L15A is in the VTi and VTi-S.
Just thought I bring this thread alive.. While reading this Review from this threadQuote:

Jazz vtec kicks in pretty low.. izit because of its i-Vtec?
i got a honda civic vti with v-tec it cicks in at 4000, but apparently u can get a vtec control wer u can adjust wen u want it to cick in my mates cousins got it n its wild.
i wanna know wer to buy 1 and how much it will cost?
It's tuned for city driving since the Fit in Japan is used mainly in the cities. Hence, tuning the engine for low to middle revs would make it more peppy. That's why they set the VTEC point at 3500rpm. from 1000-3500rpm, it's running on one profile, and 3500rpm to redline, it's it the 2nd cam profile. Just nice, because not many people rev above 3500rpm in the city, and when out on the highways, you can just go above 3500rpm for overtaking.
Well when my V-AFC 2 is set to zero, vtec comes on at 2900rpm and turns off at 2800. (A red LED lights up when vtec is engaged)
So there is the answer...short and sweet.
funny how in the past honda owners complain the vtec came in too late at5-6000rpm, now we are concerned with vtec coming on too early for our jazz's
i cant seem to distinctively pick up the vtec crossover because of low revs but i can feel it pulling, someone with full exhaust modifications can maybe share the light on L15 boobaa? :rolleyes:
