I know what the V-TEC engines are...Just didn't know if there was actually a
V-Tech box out there.

Subject: DML: RE: V-Tech accuracy?(Explaining V-Tech)
ok a V-Tech is something that most Hondas have let me see if I can get this
right... Correct me If I am wrong but V-Tech engines have an extra valve?
and it only kicks in at high RPMs? so you take off and your sloow then
V-Tech kicks in and you go faster then you switch gears and you go slow
again until RPMs go up and the valve opens you go fast and then you switch
gears and then your slow again... so basically its a visious cycle of
stupidity!!!
He probably ment to say G-Tech...
I am not a Honda freak I just know a lot poeple with them... I guess I
shouldn't talk to them then huh? but Hondas atract Fine girls but then
again if they like Hondas who needs them... hmmm... nahhh
