Thats what we need, a button that would allow vtec to set in at like 2500. That way we can turn it off for less sprintier and more fuel economic drives, and turn it on when we want the speed!

 

How about 60 extra HP and SHAWD.

 

ivtec allows vtec to kick in and engage at any rpm, depending on conditions.....
vtec doesn't mean speed anyways, just a more agressive cam profile...

 

Just like the Delorean in Back to the Future 2! And a Mr. Fusion unit!

 

The TSX needs a Flux Capacitor!

 

Mine has one, OEM too.. I ran a -30 sec quarter mile.

 

That's pretty slow (you must have the 5AT ) You could do sooo much better with that race button.

 

True! Set to 121 Jigga watts!

 

1.21 Jiggawatts?!! great scott! 1.21 jiggawatts!

 

Why have a switch when most of us would leave it pressed in?

 

VTEC is at 6000rpm, or 5000rpm with Hondata. The only part that i-VTEC allows to activate at any RPM is the VTC part, which advances cam timing. VTEC can also advance the cam timing but includes the all-important valve lift and duration.

 

Lowering the VTEC too far (2500!) wouldn't do any good, as the high cam is tuned for, well, high RPMs. But if you want to change it, you could look into getting a VTEC controller, but that's a bit of a hack. Do you feel lucky hacking into your car's CPU?

 

Thanks for the good laugh this morning. Hahah

 

Dude, I totally agree. I was all set to buy a flux capacitor for my TSX, but then I went and bought a house instead.

Oh well.

 

My flux capacitor is making a rattling sound. I brought it in to the dealer and they couldn't reproduce the sound.

 

There goes your warranty




I need this button for when I come up against a Porsche Cayenne Turbo:

 

NICE PIC

 

Wasn't the flux capacitor void your warranty?

 

A lot of high end cars have "performace" switches. The M5 has a switch that releases an extra 100 horses when you want to go into high speed mode. Even sicker is the new Buggati, which you need to put a special second key into a switch which will allow the car to go into race mode and let the car break well into the 200 mph range.

i would leave my switch off unless I needed it

 

How about a magnet sticker! You can release another 200hp on your TSX by just stick it on your door.

 

 

:ibtinkywinkycomplainsabouthisfluxcapacitor:

 

What about a "go baby go" button.

 

Some M3's and M5's got lights in the rpm gauge... when the engine is cold you can't rev that much..the warmer the engine gets, the more lights turn off (higher rev limit)...nice

But have to say that i think the vtec system starting at 6000 rpm is the stupidiest honda could do...when in first gear (automatic transmission, sport shift) it flies into the rev limiter when passing 6000 rpm...stupid stupid... why give us only 1000 rpm's fun?

Sorry... just have to let myself go

(and yes i know hondata has flashes... except for my 2005 engine.... and even if they had it for mine... $$$$ for fixing a honda design fault)

 

I saw a flux capasitor on ebay a while back.

 

My Flux Capacitor works fine






...and Page 2 just got

 

Dammit Kenny, is there no end to your performance mods!! I guess you can own everyone from 0-90, but you don't know where you'll wind up after.

 

My TSX needs to be a time machine so that I can go back to the 80s when there was better tv shows! Or I want to go forward to the year 2015 and try a hoverboard.

 

Biff stole my flux capacitor

 

You guys are crazy. I just made my own DIY flux capacitor out of galvanized roofing nails and 31 feet of purple yarn, total cost was under $8. It works awesome!

 

Yeah one time I ended up in a Hyundai factory It was a very tramatic experience.

I just hit the button though and came right back

 

I don't understand the desire to add a flux capacitor to you TSX. Why would you want your car to be temporally drag limited to 88 mph? And are you going to doublecross Libyans to get the plutonium you need? I think they Libyans will eventually catch on if enough TSX owners keep stealing their plutonium...

 

HEY ...DONT DISS THE STEELERS..im from PITTSBURGH
AND WE'RE GOING TO BRING IT HOME

 

This thread has gone wayyyyyyyy off topic...

 

There never WAS a topic.

And all the Steelers are going to bring home are the sad looks on their faces. Go Seahawks!

 

Oh, and pw+1

 

hey guys becareful in the rain storms you dont want to get struck by lightning...

go seahawks

 

:ibtfl:

Can't believe its gone this far already...

Some unamed posted probaly wishes that there's a "Jetta" button that turns the TSX into a Corolla-looking clone and breaks down every week.

 

Dude! Mr. Fusion doesn't power the car. It is used to power the time circuit. I guess you didn't see Back to the Future 3. Hahahah!!!

 

I love that you also added it to your list of mods.
