Default Variocam
Can you feel when variocam kicks in. I feel a little change in my power around 3200 rpm mostly in 2/3 gear. Feels like a little attitude change when driving alittle aggressively. When driving without my foot in pedal you don't feel the change as much. I have 03 C4S

Exactly what mine does, more so at aggressive acceleration and not so much if I don't push it hard.

Yes, same here in my 40AE. If I slowly increase revs to the 3200 rpm point, I can feel a little surge.

Yep, same here
I also have PSE and there is also a noticeable increase in glorious exhaust sound when the vario cam shifts
