At what RPM (DANGER ZONE!!!) does the vario-cam transition?
There is no fixed or set point for the Variocam transition. IIRC the Variocam logic is based on rpm, throttle position, and oil temperature. It is primarily used in the mid-rpm range to boost torque (~1,500 to 5,000rpm) when the throttle is opened, so its operation is more of a function of how often you step on the throttle than simply what rpm you happen to be cruising around at.
