Any time your increase the two your result is increased.

It automatically changes to vtec at 5,850rpm (I believe for the 05-06, not sure about the 02-04).
Thanks for the help man,
Hey when you decide on your exhaust and get it put on, can you give us a video of you revving it up? If I like, I will prolly copy you heh
