Oil Capacity + VTEC = ?

I was thinking about going with a larger capacity Oil pan, mainly beacause it has the fittings for turbo oil inlet hoses. I was wondering if anybody knows How a larger capacity affects VTEC? Better? Worse? or No affect at All?

thanks

you add extra oil with larger capacity oil pans, so I don't see how it'd be any different, only better.

Re: Oil Capacity + VTEC = ?

Pan volume and oil pressure for vtec are not related, a bigger pan will have no effect at all. VTEC is either on or off, so as long you have enough pressure when you engage, you're fine.
