5k kick.

Power delivery is really from 5k+ peak at about 6.5k

Hope you like buying gearboxs

Yeah it's 5k kick as the v-tec kicks in.

You might have 1 of the 182s that came with turbos. I think its in your glove compartment.

 

[penaul]

[penaul]

[JCC]

Emmmm, Ok?

The 5k kick isn't that noticable.

I've just bought my 182, not really had the chance to drive it properly. Coming from a bullet proof Honda B16A I'm a bit worried booting this around all day is going to kill it.

My maxogen has smoothed the '5k kick' out

It all depends on mods tbh, breathing mods get rid of the kick and even out the power delivery

Well your gay Mine went on 60k, drive shaft made a nice hole in it, LOL. All depends how you treat it I suppose, my box was from the last owner, no idea how many miles are on my current one as it came out of some Cup that was being broken.
