And where/when did Honda say this, o wise one? I don't think I've ever seen Honda say 'never', since they are so unpredictable.

This might be a stupid question, but does the CTR use the RSX-S engine to make 200HP or is it like the older generation of Type-R's that used higher compression than the American models, therefore forcing the owner to use octane ratings we couldn't acquire here?

It's the same engine as in the RSX-S with taller transmission ratios The DC5 Integra Type-R engine (K20A5) produces 220HP, in case you didn't know.

So your saying it would be possible since they can run the RSX-S motor here without emissions or octane problems? I was under the impression the B16B in the last CTR never came over was due to the fact that the Japanese can get higher octane gas then us...
