Can please someone post a pics of his engine area on LX sedan 177-hp, 2.4-Liter ? I am just curious,because on the official photo from Honda.com the engine has the plastic cover with I-Vtech sign I am missing on my LX sedan.Thanks

Also when does vtec kick in ?

I think it kicks in between 3k ~ 4k rpm range.
That is for 2.4L 190HP K24Z3

First pics is official from honda.com and second one is mine.Am I really missing the plastic cover on my LX-P ?

No you must not be missing anything because the picture from their website is of the 190hp version. The big clue is the strut tower brace behind the motor. That is a improvement that comes with the uprated engine models.

Thank you guys.Confirmed with my local dealer. The LX-P doesn't have the plastic cover.
