Is there a way to make the VTEC kick in sooner?
But just getting it to kick in a 1000 or so RPM lower down can make a big difference to the drive. It's a bit like adding a fast road cam I suppose.
Quite possibly, was just a thought though,
I thought the double vanos produced more power than the single.
That's what I'm told by some. Perhaps the US engine specs are different?
The car isn't especially quick but it still clears 0-62 comfortably in under 8 seconds and pulls firmly across right the rev range.
Anti Knock Index, is an average between RON and MON
Motor Octane Number (MON), or the aviation lean octane rating, which is a better measure of how the fuel behaves when under load, as it is determined at 900 rpm engine speed, instead of the 600 rpm for RON. MON testing uses a similar test engine to that used in RON testing, but with a preheated fuel mixture, higher engine speed, and variable ignition timing to further stress the fuel's knock resistance. Depending on the composition of the fuel, the MON of a modern gasoline will be about 8 to 10 points lower than the RON, however there is no direct link between RON and MON. Normally, fuel specifications require both a minimum RON and a minimum MON.
Better now?
Ha ha,
