    k24 vtec sound?

    This could be a bit of a noob question but what can be done for the iVTEC sound on the k24 to be exaggerated? Like on b series engines...

    the K motors were built to have a more constant vtec transition.

    a pod would certainly be audibly satisfying but it wont have the same sudden change of sound when the aggressive cam profile kicks in the B series motors...but atleast u got more power

    Just an Intake alone, Injen for example really brings out the engine noise.

    The actual vtec sound at 6,000rpm is not huge but it still sounds like a monster from about 3,000rpm when accelerating, even if it doesnt go like one lol

    k series vtec is more linear and progressive than b series agressive crossover.intake will help the noise though

    there's a distinct transition? ive only ever went the whole rev range in 1st gear since the install and it goes through it sooooo quick now i cant even hear the transition/s.
