vtech kicks in at higher rpms to put out more power, so when hit hits that speed it kicks in

It's when you run over a VTEC head or cam that is laying in the road. lol

VTEC has seperate cam lobes for high rpm power production. When the engine "hits VTEC", it switches to a more aggressive cam lobe and tuning to make more power.

its when it engages...people just say it hits or kicks cause it sounds cooler than "damn i just engaged vtec" "i just hit vtec" sounds cooler
