As you may know, mine is a 2007 that post-dates the adjustment made by Honda and TINK's is a 5th generation that doesn't have VTEC at all.
I think your best bet is to continue reading on the VFR forums: http://vfrworld.com/forums/forumdisplay....-2002-2013 and search for "VTEC." I'm sure you'll find quite a few posts discussing the issue and many who have asked the same question you are asking.
I'll say this about post-2006 VTEC > I've never had a problem with it and have found complaints regarding activation to be overstated. Of course, mine is a 2007 but as you'll see, there are still many who curse VTEC altogether, no matter what model year. Personally, I love it when it kicks in. The feel and the sound is fantastic. And it has never disrupted my lines or otherwise caused problems. Good luck!
Thanks MG, I have opened an account over there and will take some time to go threw some threads. I have already receive several solid responses in the few hours i posted.
