Default My Accord has a VTEC

I was wondering if it was anything special that my 2000 Accord Coupe has a 2.3L VTEC. Someone once told me that it's "rare" for Honda to put a VTEC in an Accord. I don't know enough to tell if he's right or not. Anyone else heard of this?

Erm...I guess it's rare now since Honda moved onto the iVTEC (Eco-VTEC) for Accords...

Very nice car, by the way...

Nice. Manual, I assume?

No turbo, eh? You'd really be pushin the horses then... Speaking of HP, how much?

Well...it looks like he has an intake, headers, and maybe exhaust? He's probably pushing 215+.

its a manual with a fairly new Forbidden short shifter i might add. i added a link to my mod list in my sig for more details.

im guessing its around 220+ i dynoed at 182 many months ago. since then ive upgraded the intake, exhaust, header with a now 2.5" collector, as well as getting a new ecu with the IABs functioning. so using the older numbers, 182whp with 17% drivetrain loss, about 220 at the box. i really want to get another pull and see how i do with the new stuff.
