What do you mean by boost up the vtec? If you mean to change the vtec you can get a vafc2 which would let you raise and lower the point but you shouldnt do it on a stock engine. If you mean a boost in power you would need to get a camshaft.

The VTEC can be set to engage at different RPMs with a VTEC controller. It can not be made stronger or weaker. I wouldnt recommend it though.. not unless you take it to a well qualified honda tuner who knows what the hell he/she's doing. And even then, he/she'll probably tell you it's not the greatest idea.

you need to read on what vtec actually. long story short when vtec engages it opens valves which and your ecu raises its fuel maps. open valves means more air is coming in, that combined with more fuel = more power. but there are parts of your power band that dont respond well to more air + fuel, which is why vtec is set where it is from the factory. the only reason why anyone should consider changing where it engages is when they change theyre cams, or in your case cam.jayz32123 said:How Was Told You Can Boost Up The Vtec But I Wasnt Sure How I Do It.
well, boost UP vtec is not something u can do...but u can always boost it ur vtec engine.... get a t3/t04 or t3 super 60
its not worth it. you need bigger cams or its pointless

ok I can tell you what they did tomorrow..I have it all at work. I'vebeen reading it to see what they did because I'm trying to build a the motor in a ED7. I've been doing a lot of reseach on a lot of things.. I'm trying to build a couple of typs of cars.... I don't see how you wont be able to do it with the K20A3, if they did it with the K24...so...
