Freaking Drive by wire cars.. I wanna listen to the vtec purr from under the hood..

I don't know that you can do it.

You can't even if you could. The rev limiter is at 4K when in neutral or I guess park for autos. So you never could ge to Vtec range even if you could manipulate the Throttle Body. Sorry

5k rpm rev limiter while car is stopped. If you really want to hear what the car sounds like in the vtec range, stand somewhere and have a friend drive your car near the redline by you.

Did you say let a friend drive my car?

Just take the car to the dyno and stand next to it.

TSX 3Pedal

SRI, open hood, i-VTEC, on DYNO = super loud i-VTEC
...also the garage wasn't that big so all the noise was enclosed inside...but it was really loud

step 1- remove hood

step 2- have someone drive your car

step 3-open sun roof

step 4- climb through sun roof on too front of car

step 5- listen to reving engine

you can rev the engine under the hood. the throttle body linkage is out in the open, but you will not be able to hear vtec. instead you will hear the sound of your car cutting fuel off to the car @ 4k

The TSX has DBW so no direct linkage on the TB. However, you still can rev the engine by removing the Accelerator Position Sensor cover on the firewall and rotate the cam.

more trouble than its worth though, getting that cover off is a PITA
