I believe 4800 rpm is stock
Previous owner running Hondata
Alright so I recently purchased a stock 9th gen Sedan, and after having it for a couple of months I kinda figured out that the person who had it before me was running hondata. I believe he tweaked the Rpm that Vtec kicks in at, and I just want to know, what is the oem Rpm that the vtec should kick in at?

Si or non Si ?Alright so I recently purchased a stock 9th gen Sedan, and after having it for a couple of months I kinda figured out that the person who had it before me was running hondata.

Basic check to see if the car is flashed and currently running any hondata map. With cruise control off press the set button and see if it displays your current a/f
Ok thank you guys, and yes it’s an Si. As well when I push my deceleration button with cruise Control off, it does give me a reading, found that out the other day on accident actually. What do you mean by upper and lower engagement points for vtec?
Because when I am doing a pull, I feel like the most power I get is pretty high up in the Rpms, so I’m think for some reason he pushed the vtec point pretty high.
If pressing that button gives you an AFR reading on the tach then it's 100% a reflash. A factory ECU calibration doesn't include this, it's a feature specific to Hondata calibrations.Ok thank you guys, and yes it’s an Si.
