Probably helps you find the toilet when you're half awake in the middle of the night. Or better yet, hammered.

IIRC - it works to make power efficiently at upper rpms. Not so much 'more power'. Could be wrong though.


BTW - you and lemons (and anyone for that matter) thats on FB... ponygt65@hotmail.com if yall wanna send an invite.

I have a truck with 125k on it..DD..lol

What VTEC does is engage a second Lobe on the Cam and opens the Valves a little more..pretty good idea in the upper RPM's...hurts it down low.

I love the ricer kids that don't understand how it works and put a switch on it and are like "I have a VTEC Switch so I can run it all the time.."

Fail.

What I said was a baited statement, as I was pretty drunk last night and hoping somebody would bite. Now I see that it's not as much fun as it used to be. I won't bother going into the technical stuff about it, but suffice it to say that I know exactly how it works, and what I said about VTEC not making any power is a half-truth. But it isn't really false.

quoting some **** like that from fast and the furious i seriously doubt you know how to change ur own oil.

And I know as much about mustangs than you do about ls/lt series.

Take a seat towards the back and take out your note book. Try to keep up. Here's your first lesson, It'll take some research and thinking on your part though....you ready?.....ok......I SAID 10RWHP WITH NO TUNE OR OTHER MODS. WITH....as in when you 'so called' gain those ten with nothing more than larger tubing and a different muffler, you did NOT have it REtuned or have other mods put on AT THE SAME TIME.

and.....(bonus)......It wasn't on the same day obviously and with your lack of common sense, I wonder if it was even on teh same dyno with the same operator.

Next lesson: how lame it is to combine "lamborghini and Camaro". There might be a quiz.
Alright, seeing as the main focus of your retarded argument is on my name choice... I guess i will settle that first. The name Lambaro has absolutely nothing to do with a lamborghini. My last name is Lambert, and people started calling my car the lambaro a while back. Having a general clue what you are talking about might help you next time. And honestly, what maturity level are you at that you take stabs at peoples usernames, grow up a bit.

I have no interest in your theoretical situations, i was simply telling kevin what the addition of a catback did for my setup, which had already included CAI and handheld tune before the catback was installed.

You created your own pointless stake in the conversation and followed it with an even more ignorant and retarded post. Thank you.
