i have 2 180's and one of then kicks very hard when the vvt kicks in,the other one yes you can feel it working but just does not kick so strong.
i have swapped the vvt valve between the 2 cars and still the same,so i am trying to work out if the first car has be remapped in the past or if the second car has other faults.
