Need help on honda civic
ok, I have a 4 door sedan honda civic EX.
Im desperate to know if its a vtec or not, it does not say vtec on my engine but I've been told it doesn't have to. Also when I go to advance auto parts I see my car pops up sayin SOHC vtec, and says I have a d16y8. So is it a vtec how do I know?
My brothers says vtec on his engine. Idk
