so thats kinda out of the question.

I'll tell you right now...when we do get a chip...it'll cost more in the range of $700+

I've said it before in another post but I guess it got lost.
It's not cams. It's something new that installs in minutes. Even the least-technically inclined among us can install it (and yes that also goes for the guy who called a ratchet the "thing that clicks when it turns").

Syncivic (himself) stated that there was about 15HP of low-end rpm loss by activating too early (leaving the actuator on) and a 25HP high-end rpm loss with it not working (the dreaded CLS to CLP conversion)

<STRONG>Maybe a dual venturi throttle body that allows high velocity at low rpm (for low end torque) and a larger diameter secondary bore(for higher flow at vtec land). Kind of like the venturis in a four bbl carb, if anyone is old enough to remember? Seems like it would expand on the low end torque/high end flow like our IMRC and vtec timers do. Rick Case Acura has been working on turbos and up to 4.1 liter motors. I know they have had to deal with throttle bodies in their quest for the perfect CL.
Our exhaust flows are pretty well maxed out if you have headers/cai/exhaust. The bottleneck is the throttle body. We already have an almost perfectly tuned ecu, cams wouldn't take a few minutes to install,and their optimized already, gears and flywheels would be most benifitial on race and manual tranny cars.
