its not. its a SOHC vtec motor which engages vtec in the lower 2k RPM so its basically always active. you will never be able to hear vtec on the d17


The pleasure of a dream is that it is a fantasy. If it happens then it was never a dream to begin with.

It's crossover points are different depending on your throttle.
