Is it just me or does MIVEC open @ 4k rpms? I know it's 3.5k, but reading all these dynos, I dont see a spike until 4k. Actually see a fall @ 3.5k. Also when driving my car, I don't see a speedo difference, or hear an engine/exhaust noise @ 3.5k, but @ 4k I feel all those comming in... idk, maybe it's just my car....???

EDIT: not kick,

 

all i have is an cai, and your right i usually here an opening sound of the intake load until around 4k, i mean i don't think your gonna feel the mivec kick in or a major speed difference but more of a steady up in speed.

 

I hear a change in my engine sound right at 3600rpm. Up until that point, my CAI makes a whisling sucking type sound, then at/after 3600 it starts to roar.

 

^^^ sorry, didnt mean kick in... i know you don't feel a KICK, just smooth power pull @4k and up...

 

Heres a dyno of my car stock, and then now with a cai. https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/at...chmentid=54022

And arithmetic MIVEC comes on @ 3600 i think, it doesnt "kick" in like Vtec its smoother. If u listen with radio off windows down u can barely hear it come on, its louder with a intake though. I know we get max torque @ 4000 maybe thats what u feel?

 

I , too, feel a "kick" right at 4000rpm and I can also hear it.

 

This is what aem got when they ran dyno runs befor 'baseline' and after a AEM CAI....

 

poop the picture didnt show up 8?/

well they got 148.6WHP and 145.8WFT

 

even before my intake and exhaust and when I was bone stock, myself and my friends didnt feel any engine improvment or throttle response intill 4k, now w/ my mods i feel a greater response @ 4k. Even stock and modded dynos of the RA don't show a spike of power intill 4k.

 

hmm i dunno then, but i know if i drive at 3500+ rpms my gas mileage goes

 

^^^ that I agree w/ you 100%!

 

heres a link to a pdf file... for the automatic dyno sheet... testing the aem SRS

automatic baseline.

 

wow...we really loose about 12 horses and 20 lbs of torque going from stick to auto? didn't know it was that drastic.
