Actually there is quite a bit of difference between VTEC and VTECH. But I don't give a rats *** if someone does misspell it it. Everyone has once or twice. As for the header(s) comment. That does bug me. You have an I-4, you won't have more than one header. Same goes of an I-6.

Back on topic, best bag for your buck on any D series is a turbo. Good luck.

STFU noob! You're just upset because you're wrong. Saying your Honda has V-TECH or VTEK is blasphamy!

maybe you were just kidding...

if i were you, the best way to get some pickup is to get rid of that SOHC motor, if thats what is in there. here is a good link:

If you can't spell VTEC then maybe its time to take a trip to a Honda or Acura dealership and ask them to look under a hood and take notes.
