Wow that L-series engine is incredible... the iDSI system reminds me of the CVCC system in its ingenuity... 8 sparkplugs in a 4 cylinder Honda for faster/more complete combustion. :O

On a side note, the new Fit engine is really neat - But it's 110 hp at a screaming RPM and it gets worse mileage than my D16 91 Civ.

Bah, gimme two more valves per cylinder and keep your extra plug :P

What crap. 8 valve... Lost power and efficiency in the name of better emissions. They can shove the fit up their arse sideways.
