Hatch92 Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 the stock vtec engagment for a b16 is higher than a b18c i thought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CleanGSR Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 It does....GSR engages around 4500 and B16 at around 5500. I'm guessing delsol dude has a B18C1 swap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatch92 Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 thats what i would assume Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hatch92 Posted February 9, 2008 Share Posted February 9, 2008 does the car have a vtec controller or a chipped ECU? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hondada Posted February 9, 2008 Author Share Posted February 9, 2008 chipped ecu on chrome pro Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cranny Posted February 10, 2008 Share Posted February 10, 2008 whoever has your vtec point set to 6k is an idiot. its not a turbo car. lower it to 5k and tune it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatch92 Posted February 10, 2008 Share Posted February 10, 2008 (edited) ^ agree. take it to a tuner and have them lower the vtec cross-over and let them tune it for that cross-over Edited February 10, 2008 by Hatch92 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hondada Posted February 11, 2008 Author Share Posted February 11, 2008 hey awsome thanks guys i kinda though it should be around five too cuz i can feel it gain touqe with out the lift... is there anyway since it is chipped on crome pro a buddy of mine has hondata so i was wondering is it possible for me to just plug it in and adjust it on there? or would i have to re burn the chip on chrome pro Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
