No, just because ur Lude (93-96) doesn't say VTEC on the back doesn't mean ur car wasn't a VTEC Model the sticker on 93-96 Lude's that say VTEC is really CHEAP so overtime or new paint job's it could of been removed...look for VTEC feat's if ur worried about it...RMP Redline, center spear in the REAR, brake light on REAR TAIL, etc.
