the problem with the redline hitting in at 6-7000 is because the car is not warmed up. The ECU will prevent you from killing your engine by VTEC-ing on a cold engine.

1) No one knows about the '06. A lot of people claim to have "inside knowledge," but Honda is notoriously tight lipped. You will know about 2-3 months prior to launch.

2) This is the $1,000,000 question. Everyone asks it, and no one has the answer.

3) Do not hit VTEC (6300 RPM, for MY00) until you have 3 bars on the engine temperature.

4) In order to reset the Maintenance light, you will most likely have to go to the dealer and get them to find the source of the code the ECU is emitting and turn it off for you. Kinda a hastle, but that is how I have done it with all my family's other Hondas.

Sorry for the flaming. The guys are just having fun with you. The questions about the '06, or any "next model year" for that matter are kinda taboo (no one knows anything about it). To avoid getting , avoid those questions....and utilize the searce feature.
