I'm pretty sure it says small details like this in the "Specs" part of this site. So if you're ever curious about something that has to do stock information about your car check there first man.

SOHC V-TaK. If your A/C is on, you won't hear/feel it. If your A/C is off, you still won't hear/feel it, but you'll think you do.

so your asking if you have any vtec...the way you say it, you make it seem like it only has a little bit..:(
It does just have a little bit. It's more of somethign you hear than feel.

The fluid is in a really stupid place. You have to take out the passenger airbag.
That's really not funny. The OP is obviously very confused about this subject and this post just helps to spread misinformation.

It doesn't even read as an obvious joke to someone who might not know about cars very much.

one word vtec
Actually, Honda uses both. In the EPC there is a model that is labeled the "del Sol V-TEC". Most people do seem to spell it as "VTEC", but "V-TEC" is still fine really. I didn't notice until recently either though.

Stuff like this is not included in the specs. The specs mostly list engine codes, specs to said engines, weights, chassis codes and color codes. Much of it is wrong or questionable unfortunately.

I meant more along the lines of what the thread turned into... it mentioned how VTEC worked, about how it's related to oil, etc. I know it says "SOHC VTEC" and such in the specs on the site, but it doesn't go much more beyond that. It also doesn't mention a lot of stock information.
