inquiry 'bout vtec activation point

[epitBDL]

can use any other method to set the activation point? eg:shift light

what do u mean "other method"???
what shift light are u talking abt, bro???

1. u can use vafc
2. use chipped ecu

 

[hattech-v]

vtec controller like spoon vc3e, vafc, emanage.
u cannot use shift light to activate ur vtec point..

or u can use manual activation by using switch which is directly send current to the vtec solenoid... hehe..

u might want to re-consider the idea of changing the vtec activation point. the point were meant for the maps designed in the ecu. by simply moving it earlier or later with incorrent fueling and ignition may create power loss.

Agree with J101.

If you engage too early, the car will jerk a bit during switchover, as not enough volume passing true for the vtec duration.

if you engage it too late, then you will see a flat spot in torque.

Some of the VTEC controllers use knobs.

Me, I'm on hondata now, so no need for such things.

you meant, it's better to use factory setting for vtec activation point....

exactomundo

if set earlier, the VTEC cant sustain all the way to redline, unless u have a set of cams

if too early, like shiro-san said, u'll get a dip in torque, unless ur running a chipped ECU

wah, u got Hondata? Fawrking sweet man.

 

[shiroitenshi]

Yeah.. got hondata messed with it for the past two months already..

my engine is surprisingly resistant to knocking even when I'm running high advance numbers.. (O_o)

As for vtec point, better I show than say. I set it suprisingly close to stock, at 5400 rpm.

I'll have to dig up my old datalogs. I'll post it sometime tommorow.

one has the example of a flat spot, and the other of putting vtec too early.

knocking??

what engine u got bro?? H22a?? wuwuwuw

erm, ur running Hondata right, what base map?

yeah, post ur datalogs, share share ma

 

[darkemperor]

shiro...
how much u got it? is it s300 or the pro...new or used...can plug n play to any ecu rite...? what about the software...dont mind so many q...kekeke...

n is it true by engaging the vtec early u wont get the power (hp&torque) at most compression required by the engine???

bien...
u also wan hondata kaaa....then we both can sit together ler with the h22....shiro is on b16..

 

[epitBDL]

wow!! so much tech helps there. thanx everyone replied.

 

[epitBDL]

wow,thx for the tech reply.very useful 4 newbie like me.

 

[evoX2]

shiro already achived Ph.D in hondata already (Permanent Head Damage) :P

 

[shiroitenshi]

Lol..

Anyway.. for those wondering... the thread is updated, and it should be listed in the first page right now.. datalogs are there too.

Oh, and I can't seem to find the older logs of my tests with early vtec points.

erm, if enuf funds, maybe. my car now no value, heck, i paid more to get the swap and engine compared to the value of my SM4 now.

oohhh, B16, lansi

ey darkemperor, where in u Johor u at?

 

[shiroitenshi]

b16 lansi? Wah.. like that one ah?

Anyway, the questions are answered on the hondata thread.

ya meh, B16 with Hondata

monster killer

 

[shiroitenshi]

Haha.. actually bigger cc better.

But it's more fun for now to see if I can touch 180whp with B16A for now.

 

[J101]

you can get your hondata from the malaysia authorised dealer
JC Racing- Tuners & Accessories

you can get more details on hondata from their website regarding compatibility with your engine.

180whp???

im only getting 160whp from the H22

wow
