it's a little off, becuase VTEC does not allow for "multiple camshafts" (i.e. four cylinder SOHC).... I think what they meant was allowing for "multiple lobes per valve" on the camshaft.

i would like to add this link showing a very short video how vtec works (about a minute)

How Vtec Works

[sleepyEM1]

I found a good one a few years ago i wish i could find it :( but it had some good info about how vtec works and how it was developed and whatnot

[91std]

If anyone has a downloadable copy of High Performance Honda Builder's Handbook by Joe Pettitt, appendix D is all about how Vtec works.

If I find a scanner to use I can scan the pages and upload them also.

is super v-tec easy to hook up and does it ruin your engines as fast as turbo and misfiring system?

^^ lol huh?

[ch33.thao]

okay i was chilling with nus at midway a couple of days ago at midway and there was this dude came and talk to him and was talking about super v-tec. it supposedly be some kinda straight hook up with the v-tec selonoid without anything in-between and was wondering if i can get more information about this "super vtec" and this at advantage and disadvantage, but being "super vtec" i suppose that there is no disadvantage.

they guys is on this forum. he drives a White ford explorer and he used to drive a civic until something with his clutch bearing went out right after this installation

Here ya go. i think your talking about a Vtec controller. but just so you know you would find a lot more help if you just started a thread on it.

super vtec? hahaha

[kinetics]

Based on your description, it sounds like just wiring the solenoid on full time.
That will cause some issues (there's a reason why it's advised not to kick it on below 2k), but could be done very easily.
Why you'd want to, I'm unsure.

[ch33.thao]

from what i heard it kicks hard and just wanna see if this would produce more hp/speed

[nusdogg]

Valve Timing Electronic Lift Control, enough said! Haha.

[JdmAsFuck]

hahah who doesnt know how v- tec works?

[nusdogg]

Noobies.

[Arrrrgh]

yo i set my vtec in kpro to 3500 because its early vtec

[jrock16]

The only reason you would want early vtec would be for good gas milage lol, the reason it is set around 5-5600 is because that is usually where your torque curve is ending and you hourse power will begin fyi
