    I usually shift at about 3900 rpms.. right before vtec has a chance to kick in... does it really save that much gas to shift at a lower rpm???

    Lol, well what kind of car do you drive, i could probably look it up, have you ever used a v tec controller or changed it so your v tec kicks in earlier or later?
