My advice to you is to either stop posting useless crap in a tech forum, or move your way somewhere else.

No, the compression ratio dictates the octane gas you need to run, it has nothing to do with iVtec.

It's all about the compression ratio.
The base RSX and Civic Si have 9.8:1 compression.
The RSX Type S has 11:1 compression.
Higher compression ratios require higher octane gas to prevent premature detonation of the air/fuel mixture. Premium = higher octane then regular.

Since I have typed out a dissertation on this topic in the past, I will simply link you rather than type it again.

That should answer any and all questions that you may have.

i understand that the compression ratios are different...but how do each one differ in performance? horsepower...torque...stoplight to stoplight...mpg...cleaner of the two engines...etc? i actually dunno, so thatz y ima askin, dont bag on me...because i dunno.
