I remember reading numerous posts here about people wanting to have a vtec light. Since that post is hidden and only has 1 response, i just decided it needed it's own thread. It would help R18 people get better fuel economy. Last edited by asndragonboii; 07-01-2009 at 09:36 PM. |

How is the post hidden? There is a whole thread on it. Why not just bump the thread?

Hey
Hey guys. I'm the author. Thanks for the feedback.
For those asking how it works- the objective is to signal when the econ cam lobes are in use. This is done by lighting the LED when they are engaged. I've also incorporated a relay that create a 'click' when they go on and off as well. From around 1000rpms up to about 3500rpms or so, if you are very light on the gas, i-vtec will engage. This means that the ICE is operating in a mode where pumping losses are minimized (I believe because the intake valves are left slight open during the off-stroke). I love this mod. I use it every time I'm in the car to tell when I'm getting the best FE. |
