Can't equate speed with quality. Comfortable cost effective longivity is what the informed driver looks for unless of course you happen to be a teenie bopper looking for the speed rush. Once you run 200+ mph & especially if your paying for the ride the thrill wears thin.

Its hard to tell what kind of motor you have when it is covered in red paint but it looks like you have a 1.6 SOHC NON VTEC
its actually vtec, you can tell by the vtec solinode and having the spark plugs in front. all D15-D16 SOHC engines with Vtec have there spark plugs located on the front of the valve cover, and like i said before just look behind it for the vtech solinode,

all SOHC D series motors have their spark plugs in the front




i have a D15B7. it's a SOHC and has sparkplugs in the back
