I am new to the whole car thing, be nice please - at what rpm range does my vtec kick in for a 2.2cl (automatic)?
Also, whats the consensus on driving in d3 in city/d4 on freeway? I drive in d3 for the higher revs but at what revs is it good to kick it into d4 when entering highway? I have to climb a hill at the onramp, and when I have it in d4 all the way I superlag up the damn thing - but when I drive up the hill in d3 and switch to d4 @ ~ 3500 rpms it goes pretty well...
Thanks!!

correction, please correct yourself its VTEC not VTECH like the phone

2.2 i think its 3500-4000 but thats what peple say im a 3.0 and i keep telling peps its 5300 for the 3.0 but no one believes me but anyways on to the point, the 2.2 you cant really tell the vtec kick in at all with out an intake to hear it, the stock one you cant feel shit. i use d3 to hop onto the freeway up to about 70-80 and then toss it into d4. got more q's pm me i can help you
