thanks sir bangad...the reason i asked this is, as far as i know, usually the engine codes for honda cars start with B, like b15, b16, etc...curiously, what 's the difference between PH16 and B16? Thanks again.

OT: sir bangad, are you an ilokano? im an ilokano too, from la union.

B16 is DOHC.
Since they said the PH16 is the engine of the ESi/VTi, then it must be SOHC.

I always thought the engine of the ESi was the same as the non-VTEC D16A of the HR-V.

I have a feeling the PH16 is basically a D16A (1.6 liter SOHC) which came in both VTEC and non-VTEC versions.
