Get the VTIR!!!!
ive test drove gsi n vtir n nothing beats the scream of vtec (and i personally own one).... to those who are saying a gsi is almost as quick as a vtir i say keep dreaming...
in regards to flowing better, the vtec solenoid is located next to the intake camshaft which has nothing in realisty to do with air flow etc...
BTW my vtir runs 14.5 (stock everything except itr bottom end in motor)
otherwise juss put a K20/K24 in GSI!!!!! ;-p
yea hes already driving a k20 :>
Gsi Power!
i meant by different valve sizing
and the fact of vtec changing lift etc....
Personally, when i was shoppin 4 my car i really wanned a Vtir... after taking 5 of em 4 a spin that were within my price range (12Gs) i took a couple of GSi's 4 a cruise n they honestly felt a lot better. With that pricerange ur lookin at thrashed examples of Vtir's so i ended up buyin a Gsi it for 9.5Gs n it was in WAAAY better condition than any of the vtec models i came across.
Havnt regretted it 4 a second... beautiful, reliable car... mind u, id love 2 drop a B18C7 in it! :P
just a real noob question but is the vtec killer cams cams that remove vtec?
Pretty much same situation. Was really looking for a VTi-R but all the ones i test drove felt so crap... thus ending up with a very good condition GSi.Quote:

theres a differerence in performance but it isnt great..its not that great that you would sell your gsi to buy a vtir...gsi owners will probly head towards a significant difference in performance = typeR
yeah, honestly... owning a gsi, the only thing i hate about it, is being asked if its VTEC n the lack of the VTiR decal on the rear!
Really, when u comparing stock kw/atw ratings between the 2 models ur only looking at maybe 10 kw atw which isnt much at all really.
haha yeah.. when they check under the bonnet and see no vtec they are like "ohhhh..."
