WTF is D16Y2?

[Nodachi]

Hey guys got any idea on what is d16y2??? is it Vtec or somethin?

[bennjamin]

i googled it - and it falls into this range - 1.6 L (1590cc) D16Y2, D16Y3, D16Y5, D16Y6, D16Y7, D16Y8 & D16B2 SOHC 4 cylinder. And its from the UK . non-vtec.

[Nodachi]

so as long as it doesn't have VTEC printed on the Rocker cover of the engine den it's not vtec right?
but on another Site it said
Honda CIVIC COUPE VTEC (MPI) D16Y2 ????

From what I know, (I might be wrong, please correct me)
For all those SOHC engine which got VTEC print on the rocker cover are all JDM one. like D15B.
I think all AUS spec. vti model dun have vtec print on the rocker cover!
