sup man welcome to HCF. anyways sorry to bust on your head but you are v-tec. you most likely have a d16y8 motor which is v-tec and its a sohc your thinking of the 99-01 civic si which is a 2 gen b16.

Nail I3unny · #4 06-16-2005, 01:06 AM

yeah its a 1.6L SOHC VTEC

aight thanx alot guys. most vtecs that ive seen actually say it on the engine and mine didnt thas why i didnt think i had one. plus i figured i my car would haul alot more ass ha. i posted this in tha ECU section, but yall think i should get like a venom 400 or A-AFC? peace

hondabboy · #6 06-16-2005, 01:25 AM

well from people i heard the venom is pretty good. umm yeh the d6y8 valve covers dont say v-tec lol but if your a honda fan you know its v-tec by the locations of the spark plugs if there in the front then the head is v-tec if the back its not
