Vtec point? does this look right

Post by :10: »

I was under the impression that the vtec shouldn't be set lower than 4000 rpms?

but my tune from tuning factory shows it at 2200 RPMS? am I looking at this wrong??

just wondering if its ok.

also...am I supposed to be running in closed loop mode?


attached are some images. [click here]

thanks

You should be in closed loop when not tuning. If you have a k20a3, I believe your vtec point will want to be lower than 4k. I don't have any experience tuning a k20a3 however. What motor is this?

its a k20a3. RH/Exh/intake.

tuned by tuningfactoryinc.

so, if I am just driving around normaly...then it should be set to closed loop...correct?

thanks for the reply. :D

Yes, closed loop should be enabled for driving around. It will switch to open loop at 80kpa (wide open throttle, (you might check that that is the kpa they left it set at).

That's a fairly common thing for a tuner to forget actually. You will likely notice improved fuel economy with closed loop enabled.
