# Since I am running low 16's with a warm engine, there were Civics running that time easy. It pisses me off-->

So, the new VTC's don't necessarily solve the problem of heat soak?

RosenKen, are you still having a heat soak problem after your new VTCs?

And the KS might be slightly over a $100, but it's a pain to replace by yourself. Right?

: Good job on the 15.4...

: Doesnt the heat soak really piss you off? I mean it's like you know you have a quick car, but when you really need to be quick and spank someone you cant because your car is hesitating/sluggish.

: It's getting to the point where I cant stand driving my car anytime after about the first 10 minutes of driving. It's just slow as a snail.:(

- Nope, VTC's fixed the noise and top end. This issue shouldn't be called a "heat soak" problem though... RosenKen (93 SE 5spd) 16:32:03 6/21/2002 (1)
  - I've done this sort of engine work on domestic engines, but not my VE. Thanks RosenKen. n/m Aaron (92 SE Auto) 17:52:24 6/21/2002 (0)
