Factory V-TEC Settings? - HondaClub.com

93HondaSI · 05-10-2008, 02:02 AM

So i was just wondering what RPM's Honda sets V-TEC to kick in at? (I know all cars are different like the integra and civic but i was just wondering). I think the 92-95 civics is at about 6000 (correct me if I'm wrong) and most Integras are 5000 right?

4200-4400 RPMs, dont quote me but I think thats right.

I think everyone was right so far, although 3500 sounds strangley low.

I wish I could tel you all when the VTEC kicks in on my Accord but you can't really feel it anymore with a supercharger. lol

4000-4500 depends on the engine.

93HondaSI · 05-10-2008, 08:26 PM

really all in the 4-5000 range?? I didn't think they were that low

MugenEJ6AutoX · 05-11-2008, 02:47 PM

Yeah, but you can't really feel the extra pull till about 5000rpm

Depends on the car. The newer VTECs have more of a kick to them. You can see it on the dyno graphs.
