VTECs
Hi,
Just interested in knowing what the difference is of older model VTECs and newer models. For example a 1990 Integra is a 1.8L VTEC and so is a 1998 Integra or 2001 Type R. Does this mean they perform the same? Are the exactly the same engine? What differences do they have? Thanks |

Different cam profiles,pistons,compression ratios,different ECU programs,different intake/exhaust systems.There's a lot of variables. The "SAME" engine in any particular car can vary from country to country,too. Consider Japan Domestic Manufacture(JDM) engines vs US engines. -- Jim Yanik,NRA member jyanik-at-kua.net |

Re: VTECs
no, not all honda engines after 97 have vtec, civic dx's for example still
