Thanks for clearing that up JDOG. I always though it meant 'It'll Be Thread Locked"

I don't suppose you can tell me what "ttt" means?

No, why would they. Its the same thing, everyone knows that torque is for american cars only though. besides, Vtec is better than torque.

Its a simple formula.

Hp = Tq
Vtec > Tq
Vtec = FTW!!
