why no i-vtec on s2000
While I was driving home today, I was wondering why in 2004 honda didnt implement the i-vtec system into the new s2000. Is it that much better than regular vtec? I read some time ago about what made it different, but I cant remember what the differences are. Anyways, I would've thought that since they modified the engine that they might include the i-vtec, but maybe it was too complicated or something like that. Any ideas?

good question, I'd like to hear some answers
i think the new s2k should b a 2.2L i-vtec
the new k-series has so much potential its not even funny!!!! ive seen minor bolts ons such as i/h/e w/ honda reflash make 220whp....that is not fair man!!!!
for example...here what a lil tunning can get u out of a k20a2(USDM RSX Motor) can do...i/h/e, hondata, ported intake mani.... this motor i feel shits on the F20C ...imagine this motor in a lil civic hatch...all u will hear is zoom!!! to bad it doesnt look at nice as the s2k ..the only thing that makes me feel better...s2k = expensive pimp ride

but its about performance, i-vtec adjust constantly to provide maximum performance and v-tec has just one switch point, wonder how a 2.2 i v-tec would be ... ahhh
another thing i noticed on the RSX-S which has i v tec if it is a continously variable etc.. why do we still feel a kick at like 6k ? like vtec?
shouldnt it justbe smooth the whole time?
