if you look at your valve cover, it should say VTEC right there
and if you want it to have more of a kick, mix some gas in with your oil next time you change it

I um.. wow. Ok, so VTEC is either on or off. You can't make it stronger. It's just two sets of cam lobes, so if you want more power you need to do the same mods as any other engine. If you want to change where it engages, you need to use a VTEC controller or get an OBD1 ECU that is able to be chipped and tuned.

Go forth and Google how VTEC works...
