BTW, what have YOU done here? Shall we do a search to find out?

To all of the drivers in s2ki land experimenting with VTEC for the first few times: be careful. There are lots of things that may cause you to shift into the wrong gate, driver error or not. It has cost plenty of members their engines. Use and search s2ki to learn about techniques and best practices that others have to share. Be wary of message posters who are not shown as owners, and enjoy your new S2000. It

Hmmm...I wonder if the MY04 is less likely to blow the engine on a mis-shift?
Most failures from a mis-shift are due to the valve being impacted by the piston, either breaking or bending it right?
Well since the redline has been lowered, do you gain more safety from a mis-shift?
