The short answer is yes, not much of a point though, as the head you have doesn't really flow any better or worse the the vtec head... Get a cam...

Whats the difference between the engines? Why would a VTEC be better?

A cam is a pretty straight forward thing...just gotta make sure it's on time blah blah blah everything is torqued right afterwards

The vtec for Accords "kicks" in low, around 2500ish I believe, for economy. It doesn't perform as a B-series etc. does
