VTEC Engaugement Point
When does a 3.0 hit VTEC? Is it 3500 RPM?

I could be wrong to assume that it would depend on how hard you step on it and the car itself. I think the range on my car is around 4-5K when I floor it. You should be able to feel/ notice/ hear the difference, when the VTEC kicks in.

Thanks for the replies. I tried to do a search but found nothing on the actual point.
