Description from the Honda FSM:


The secondary intake CANNOT fully operate until vtec-e engages the secondary intake valve rocker arm...above ~2500 rpm. So at idle, it's a 12 valve engine. Whether or not you FEEL an increase in power. Which, speaking of power, the engine is only capable of 92hp at 5500 rpm. Vtec-e isn't going to put you back in your seat when it engages.
