![]() I make it a regular habit once well warmed up to take it to 6000 or thereabouts (quite entertaining in 2nd, but getting a bit hairy in 3rd as its 80). Yes, its a good smooth engine, and I get about 35mpg. ![]() A highly durable lower block and a chain-driven cam were just some of the improvements in an effort to create a more compact engine - resulting in an engine that is 10% lighter *5 than conventional 2-liter engines. It also satisfies the year 2010 fuel efficiency standard of 14.2km/L *3 (roughly 35mpg), and receives the government standard of "LEV" *4. ![]() In addition to such technology, improvements in the intake manifold, rearward exhaust system, lean-burn-optimized catalytic converter *1 help to create an engine that outputs 113kW (154PS) 6500rpm, *2 and provides ample mid-range torque. The two combined yield in a highly intelligent valve timing and lift mechanism. This new engine utilizes Honda's "VTEC" technology, which adjusts valve timing and lift based on the engine's RPM, but adds "VTC" - Variable Timing Control - which continuously modulates the intake valve overlap depending on engine load. Honda Motor Company has announced a newly developed 2-liter engine, dubbed the "DOHC i-VTEC" to be mated to the upcoming new model, "Stream." The engine combines world-class fuel-efficiency with low emissions, light weight, and high-output. Done a bit of surfing and come up with this - not sure if this is the engine you have as the link refers to the Honda Stream.ฤก0/26/00 - The New Generation "DOHC i-VTEC" is Announced ![]()
