Well we all suggested that but the guys with the problems don't like that so I foolishly tried to solve someone else's problem that has already been solved life 10 times

I doubt it but I've never researched it. Why wouldn't GM use it? Surely they had an need for greater fuel economy and a little extra power on demand

Wikipedia says Honda did. Good enough for me

I think it was because they could never get it to work. but if memory serves me right GM came up with the concept and failed then some guy from Rhonda made it work?

LOL yeah good enough for me too hahaha! And have you ever been for a ride in a VTEC car? I think its the most underwhelming thing I have ever experienced in my life. Everyone hypes it up so I went for a ride and was like WTF was that did you just hit your powerband? My FRS kicks harder when the tune switches from open loop to closed loop hahahaha

I have never. But 10-15hp is better than none. On some of the lower tier cars that's a 10% bump. I'll take that. Shit people put CAI on the FRS for a 2hp bump and are excited about that, at least the Honda guys didn't spend 400$ on theirs.

And is it hyped that much by the Honda guys or everyone else who needs to find a way to justify making fun of hondas?

Honda guys here hyped it up so I went for a ride. Was very disappointed. They made it sound like it was going to be a 50shot of NO2 or something. Yeah TRD intake FTW here hahahaha!! It has probably started to pay for itself by this point though
