    Alright well my VTEC is not engaging as hard as you used to. If I turn my distributor back a little bit will it help? Someone told me that it will.

    what you mean slower
    I never won any spelling bees

    Horsepower looks good on paper, Torque wins races.

    all that will do is advance your timing. Advancing it may make it feel a little faster in the lower RPMs, but your feel slower in the higher RPM's. Moving the distributor forward will retard the timing, and have the adverse effect. I would just get a timing light, and set it to factory specs. If you haven't had a tune up in a while do one.

    Check to make sure there are no metal flakes in your vtec solenoid.
