Mine actually gets quieter at 4300, no matter how hard I am on the throttle it just gets dead quiet, and this right where VTEC kicks in. I was sorta expecting it to get a bit deeper or louder, not go silent. but oh well... it makes my car unique [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]

actually there wewre some forums before with people putting in those vtec lights and they said that their vtec lights light up around 35-3300 rpms so more than likely it is the vtec.
