Vtec indicator light
I know this was talked about last year sometime, I can't find any threads on it though. Has anyone actually done this mod? If so pictures/instructions?

I love seeing vtec spelled wrong twice in the same post.
yes, you can change the VTEC engagement time, but it's probably already set at the optimal rpm. Some other honda's are not set at the best rpm time, BUT once you do several mods to the car, you MAY need to change the vtec engagement rpm to a different setting for optimal performance.

CL-p is at 4500
My source was the Chod's FAQ's.
Could've been mistyped though.

You can feel and hear VTEC engage in my car. It throws you back in the seat more and in 1st gear, the tires break loose from time to time. I can't hear VTEC engage from the engine though. Blower whine covers up all engine noise.

BTW - I'm pretty sure (95%) that the '99TL's VTEC kicks in at 3800RPM because others have said the same thing on the TL site

If I new how to down load I could show you the copy of the ticket If you email me I can mail it to you plus 6 pages of my add ons.

VTEC people, VTEC.
Type-S VTEC changeover occurs at 4800 RPM's
Even without a AEM CAI, if you know your engine you can still hear it change over.

I am very hard of hearing,but you can feel it. I cant go any faster since I have every bolt on from comptech, so NOS IS NEXT my HP is 240.06 and torque is 199.9 so I think a 75 shot should get me into the low 13's

vtec for the CL-S is at around 5K but i think it's 4900 to be exact. the reason why you feel a punch aroudn the 3K rpm range is because the torque on the CL is rated to be the highest in that area.

VTEC is 4800 rpm on the CLS.
And torque is pretty flat throughout the powerband. Torque might be highest at 3000 rpms but it doesn't fall by more than 5 anywhere throughtout.
N/A CL-S
