    i know this is the best candidate for one of the dumbest question..hehe... my brother just bought a honda city type 2002, he's just not sure if its a 1.3 or a 1.6 engine. sa gilid may nakalagay hyper 16. pero nt sure pa rin kung 1.3 or a 1.6. Are there any indications in the car if its a 1.6 or a 1.3? nahihiya na ata magtanung dun sa binilhan nya, di pa rin kasi cya marunoing masyado tumignin ng kotse... so ho0w do we know? thanks guys!

    I think that City is 1.5L... Hyper 16 might mean 16 valves and not 1.6L...

    At the time... hyper16 was used to market the 16 valve engine. Back then, 4 cylinder engines smaller than 1.6L used 12 or even 8 valves.
