Yeah, its got it. But its not really all that great on the Y8. You can just hear it when it kicks in, and it does pull a bit more, but not as much as a B series would.

Haha you're probably right man.

Like windcalmer said, it does have it, but it's not dohc so it doesn't feel like b series or any other dohc honda vtec.
