VTEC controller

I was wondering if there are any VTEC controllers made for our cars, or are they all universal. I wish i could get my vtec to open up at 3000 rpm.

it seems like dropping it down to a lower rpm would create more power earlier but it would also waste a lot of gas if you didnt need the power and revved over 3000 (which isnt abnormal)

you need to understand how and why vtec operates when it does, powerband-torque range etc
wiki has some good info

while you are there look at hygroscopic- then change your brake fluid

Dropping the VTEC to 3k will most likely result in a loss of power. There is no point in dropping it. The ECU is tuned for where its at.
