Maybe it was a tad overfilled? It was so clear when I checked it it was hard to tell, but I thought it was ok.

Sounds like the notorious MAP sensor problem. It should be under warranty, or if you're out of warranty its about $40.

S2Krazy,

I wouldn't worry to much, i've driven honda's all my life and sometimes its an smooth transition to vtec and sometimes vtec just kicks in like a bat out of hell.....i believe it depends on the oil level....when its it's a bit low the vtec will kick harder making it feel like there is a hesitation...i actually like the hesitation cause i feel like the vtec is stronger.....just my opinion..
i wouldn't worry too much...

Mike
