Like I said you don't notice it on the Single Cam's until you start putting on some mods. You can make those cars fast because the cars are soo light weight. Those engine are soo small and light and fun to tinker with.

It is true that you cant feel SOHC VTEC like a DOHC VTEC, but unhook your VTEC and drive your car. you will definatly feel the engine take a big shit after 5,000 rpm or so.
you dont miss it until its not there

Just buy yourself a repair manual for 92-95 Civics and it will show you where and what the V-Tec solenoid looks like, this will anser your question no matter what. And no you won't hear the V-tec suddenly kick in on your SOHC unless it is fairly modified and even then it is not that loud. I swapped my EX motor for a B16 and when vtec kicks in on this puppy (with ITR intake cam) you hear it and feel it like it's pissed off! I LOVE DOHC V-TEC!!!!!!!! even in Canada your Si HB should be V-tec, just look for the D16z6 engine code
