Itsec 2nd Gear May 5, 2010 Share May 5, 2010 btw, isn't that a a manufacturing fault?... it comes with v-tect but it will kill aircon comppresor if kick-in?... , does the user manual have a "guide for dummy on V-tech usage" where driver is reminded to switch off aircon when kui v-tech?...... luckily im not driving one, if not, almost everyday i will kill one compressor........didnt know it has such limitation..... the topic is very mis-leading... kui wont blow ur compressor... probably redline or what... ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Viceroymenthol 6th Gear May 6, 2010 Share May 6, 2010 (edited) yes it is true....but nothing will beat a ferrari 458 italia....but when u have that kind of car is it a mark of an achievement in life?? when you have to wind down the windows every time you accelerate. it is a mark of failure in life, boss...

Karnaugh Neutral Newbie May 6, 2010 Share May 6, 2010 i-vtec and the old school v-tec are totally different things where the latter is tune for power. I-Vtec got nothing to kui even if you redline it all the way.. Who says I-Vtec got nothing to kui? The K20A in FD2R, DC5R and CL7R fake one ah? It's the bread and butter i-Vtec hondas that got nothing to kui. For newer models with the vtec high cams, the aircon compressor will auto cut off during the Vtec cross over.

Ladykillerz 4th Gear May 6, 2010 Share May 6, 2010 so when v-tec activated, you need alot of air intake. engine hot, driver also hot. that's why must wind down the windows. lol.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nmnhnlm Clutched May 6, 2010 Share May 6, 2010 Who says I-Vtec got nothing to kui? The K20A in FD2R, DC5R and CL7R fake one ah? It's the bread and butter i-Vtec hondas that got nothing to kui. For newer models with the vtec high cams, the aircon compressor will auto cut off during the Vtec cross over. Thats one big disadvantage of going high rpm for more power. Engine can go high RPM but not the ancillaries. Perhaps its time for Honda to consider new technology. VTEC may be a marvel back in the 80s and 90s but not so today. Honda is a little behind time right now because other companies like BMW and even Toyota offers direct injection and fully variable valve lift (not to be confused with valve timing) but Honda still using a switched method (VTEC kui). But read about them releasing AVTEC that offers fully variable valve lift but no news of it yet. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
