ask your self this... if LS/VTEC is sooo great why didnt honda just combine the two and sell it stock? do you honestly think that thier engineers (Honda/Mugen) havent thought of that?

WTF don't disengage the VTEC! Are you saying to run on the big cams all the time it will idle lumpy and if you mean run on the small primary cams that's just plain stupid! LS/VTEC is a very very potent combo actually, Dave Norton has one and that engine has been amazing running 12.0s with pretty low boost. B16A being torqueless well that's why we rev the shit out of them mine made 333ft-lbs torque that aint too shabby for a lil ole 1.74liter motor

I seriously dont know where you are getting your misinformation. LS motors make good power due to the displacement and the cams are agressive enough for turbo and would make more power than a B16A if the VTEC was turned off since the primaries are MILD!

exactly my point...some have used or driven each or just one and they like it better...its what they like or believe to be fast...if i were to do it with my crx i would use the lst/v-tec...and just tune it...but like i said all opinions
