To what end? VTEC in the R18 is designed to enhance
fuel economy! It does nothing to help power or performance. Considering what it's doing with that intake valve, I would think the the rpm and load conditions underwhich it will work are relativel finite. Besides, it's a 1.8L 4-cylinder engine. "Lots of low end torque" will never be in it's repertoir.
One thing I'd be interested in doing is tapping into whatever wires get charged when the economy related VTEC is active. It would be interesting to know exactly when it's working.
