Mivec Question!

Post by YBBLK4 »

Hey guys, my friend asked me a question about Mivec which i did not have the answer too, so i was wondering if you guys could help me out :) .

He asked me if Mivec kicks in like a VTEC YO!!!!!.

If it does, can you hear/feel it kick in?

It's easier to hear it in the higher gears. 1st you can't really tell, 2nd you can hear it if you know what you're looking for and 3rd you can defo tell, but you'll also be going at about 140km/h or more.

And yes, Kustom was at AS.
