I was talking to this guy who has his own shop so I would imagine he has a clue about what he is talking about. He told me that if I diddn't have a v-tech tranny then I shouldn't go rev the hell out of my engine because I would throw a rod and all this other crazy stuff. I don't know if he is right or not but if he is do I have one on my 98 SH or how can I check? I would also like to know what the difference is between a v-tec tranny and a regular one if there is any.

 

yes, 98 ludes come wtih vtec. it should say on the car, or on the engine. and if not, go out and floor it and once u hear vrooooooBURRRRRRRR.....then u know u got vtech ^_^

 

There is no such thing as a V-tech transmission, there are however, engines with VTEC. In the case of a 4th gen an h23 transmission can be used with an h22 engine, your mechanic was probably talking about misshifting and over-reving the engine causing it to bend valves.

1. Owning a shop does not mean that anyone at that shop knows what the hell they are talking about when it comes to cars, and #2 proves it.
