Are Turbocharged VTEC Engines Going To Be Enough To Propel Honda Out Of Boredom?

If you are a petrolhead, then you have no excuse to not know about the “VTEC just kicked in, yo!” line. If you don’t, consider it as 4chan rambling for sudden-velocity situations and to describe souped up ricers.

 This being autoevolution, let's move on to the VTEC side of the deal, the acronym that stands for Honda’s proprietary variable valve control technology. It’s funny how VTEC originated from the 1983 Honda CBR400 motorbike, then it was adopted for passenger cars starting with the double overhead camshaft B16-powered Integra XSi from 1989.

Getting rid of the Novocain steering too might help.

Yes if they fix the styling and interior designs also. There is no reason why Acura can't before all performance with a turbo ILX and TLX.

VTEC + turbo charge = turbo lag.

Bu I will be confused if "VTEC kicked in yo" or "BOOST kicked in yo"
