        What grade gas do you use? pissgas perhaps? sounds like you need a tune-up or perhaps youve just gotten used to your power.

        I dont know how it feels to lose power eversince i gotten used to boost. I just only get used to the power then i go and grab up some next upgrade to make me go faster and shit.

          the motor doesnt slow, time DOES
          vtec transition is so powerfull
          anything outside the car feels meaningless

                  i dont know much about vtec but i know theres a screen inside the vtec solenoid you can try and clean out.. and yes you could have jumped a tooth.
                  its easy to do with dohc.. floating valves!!

                          it might be your timing james..

                          or maybe you just need it tuned.. haha.. let me know my friend has a dyno and one of the best tuners working for him..

                              Still braggin like you wish your car had a pair, huh?

                              OP, does it actually slow or does it just feel like vtec doesnt kick in?
