VTEC

Ok, here is a question that boggles my mind. For the 97 2.2 where does vtec kick in? i hear a change at 3000, and then another one at 4000. or is my vtec fubar?
and another thing, i got neuspeed sport springs.. who around the dc area can tell me of a good price for install? i can get it done for 130.

stupid acura owners manual doesnt say a thing about it. oh.. and 130 for the install sounds mighty good about now.
FYI. the acura dealer called and told me that the temp guage is now in production.. i guess enough people broke it huh?

does that install include alignment? Because in my area it can be done easily for like $65...but thats not including alignment...so like another 30 for alignment ...so i dunno...if i got hooked up maybe for like 50 or so...my friend i know got his prokit for 190 installed including the part...F*cking crazy...but that was a mad hookup i cant get
