vtech2?

I was looking at air filters for my 2001 civic ex and I know that it is a 1.7L vtech but i also noticed that there was a 1.7L vtech2. How can you tell? Is it on the valve cover or can you look up the vin and find out some how?
Thanks.

Re: vtech2?

There's no need to look at the vin or valve cover if you know you have an EX.

01-05 EX/Canadian Si/ Acura EL models have a D17a2 engine.
01-05 VP/HX/SE/DX/LX models have a D17a1 engine.

I know that I have an EX, I was just wondering about the vtech and vtech2 and if it was a difference. And how i could find that out.

Re: vtech2?

There is no vtech and vtech2, that's what I'm telling you.

There's a D17a2 and D17a1.

Re: vtech2?

Also... It's Vtec.. Not Vtech. Vtech is a manufacturer of children's toys, so if your engine is a vtech you probably paid too much for it.
