Default Vx hatch question

I was just wondering what engines came in the vx hatches. I heard that there's a vtec engine that came in the vx hatches. I think it's called a vtec-e engine

vtec-e really doesn't have anything to do with normally vtec, 1 intake valve per cylinder is kept almost completely closed until around 2500 rpm, this creates a vortex is the combustion chamber, these engines run on a super lean mixture (which is why they run a factory wideband O2 sensor) combined with factory roller rockers and super light chassis and wheels these things got super mileage, think 50mpg city.
