you can always hear vtec on a d... it just not as pronounced as other honda engine cause it is only intake side.

Yes, on B, H, and K series you can hear and feel it MORE, but it's always been noticeable on a D.

This just seems like a really useless topic.

I reused the gaskets, just cleaned the screens. I should have taken pics and made DIY when I did mine.
