Ok now he is killing me. Its V-TEC, and you could lose the dash mark and just type VTEC it that is easier. If you had an engine sway and the man told you its not a vtec, then its probably not.
My personal quote,"If you want to be a good chicken hawk, then you got's to pay attention!"
Someone help him please!

dude, i am the guy who bmx8cr beats every, or almost every time we are driving and messing around with people, i drive a 2000 EX coupe SOHC VTEC, and he drives a 2000 4door lx Non-VTEC, the sad part is that my car's a stick , he's an automatic, and he beats me, or almost does it, but u wanna know why, it's cuz i'm bone stock, and he's got ALREADY mods, so he actually can say that he's faster than EX(stock though), that's why he's faster than a EX, in fact, he's known as the LS EATER(u know acura integra ls)
