Gas Pedal Delay

^ VVEL is always active, it's pretty integral to how the ECU operates this engine (VVEL != VTEC). I'm pretty sure the normal throttle butterflies *do* vary in some situations

Doesn't this sensor have a partner on the front of the other side of the engine, if you're talking about an actual VVEL sensor? Or are you talking about the MAP sensor that plugs into the top driver-side rear of the upper intake manifold?

VVEL is not like Vtec. VVEL controls valve timing on intake and exhaust. VTec controls the valves in Honda you have a extra lobe on the cam when activated these open all the valves will open using this hotter lobe on the cam. Now i-Vtec adds the VVEL to the mix with variable valve timing to the intake and exhuast for better performance through the RPM band.

This engine only uses a regular camshaft on the exhaust valves.
