Now not just running through 1st gear or something like that...to really feel the nice pull it provides, go through first and then second and third since you will stay in VTEC the whole time.
I'm probably one of the more conservative owners around here and I'm very content with my S2000 at sub-VTEC rpm's.
Having said that, it's really neat having the "other" car just waiting in the background. I get the kind of gas mileage I get because I don't hot rod it that much, but dont' get me wrong, I "do" play with it from time to time and it's definitely a case of "having your cake and getting to eat it too!"
Drive Safe,

Oh, i see. I wish I had put the car through a little bit of it's paces. I just find it hard to do when I don't own the car yet, and I'm sure it wouls have scared the hell out of the sales man in the pasenger seat. By the way what are some the HP you guys are making on this rig? For those of you running aftermarket exhuasts and intakes, to those of you running the super charger or turbo. I hear the car is fine up to 8 psi.
