also the posted paragraph is only refering to when its in L/B.

i know its not going to through you back but you should feel something??? this is my point. the only time you you feel a kick is when coming out of lean burn. as you stated before the 2500 rpm switchover it is just to keep 12v mode out. so below 2500 when your in L/B and you hit the throttle its going to 16v mode(vtec on) even at idle.
