	Engineering Highlights 197-hp, 2.0-Liter, DOHC i-VTEC� 4-Cylinder Engine The 2.0-liter, dual-overhead camshaft K20Z3 engine in the Civic Si produces 197 horsepower at 7800 rpm and 139 lb.-ft. of torque at 6100 rpm. Thanks to special Honda-developed performance technologies, such as the ultra-precise Drive-by-Wire� throttle system,� 3-rocker i-VTEC� variable valve timing, a cold-air intake and equal-length exhaust header, the K20Z3 engine boasts an impressive flat torque curve from idle, all the way to its race car-like 8000-rpm redline. Plus, the K20Z3's intake and exhaust system is quiet and unobtrusive when cruising at highway speed, but produces an aggressive, sporty sound at full throttle. Drive-by-Wire Throttle System� Fast-responding electronics take the place of a traditional throttle cable and produce greater response, fuel economy and driveablility with minimum adjustment and maintenance. Helical Limited-Slip Differential Usually found only on high-performance and racing cars, the limited-slip unit helps give the driver more steering control and enhanced steering response when accelerating and cornering. Opposable Windshield Wipers The futuristic design of the 2007 Civic meant that the resulting windshield would be a very large piece of glass. In order to wipe that expanse free of moisture, a brand-new wiper system was developed. The solution was the opposable mechanism with a serviceable blade runner. The 700-mm blade is the longest offered on any Honda vehicle. This type of wiper system is typically only used on luxury vehicles. The Civic is the first compact car to offer it as standard equipment. Performance-Oriented Close-Ratio 6-Speed Manual Transmission The performance-oriented close-ratio 6-speed transmission is lightweight and compact, with a quick, precise shift action and solid, direct feel. Special features of this transmission include close gear ratios for first through fifth gears and a low 4.765:1 final drive, for faster acceleration, a stiffer cast-aluminum transmission case for reduced noise, carbon-faced single cone synchronizers on fifth and sixth gears for enhanced shift feel and a low-ratio sixth gear for quieter, more fuel-efficient highway cruising. Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS) with Electronic Brake Distribution (EBD) The anti-lock braking system (ABS) helps you maintain steering control during hard stops. Electronic Brake Distribution (EBD) balances braking forces at each wheel according to how the car is loaded dynamically. MacPherson Strut Front/Multi-Link Rear Suspension The geometry of the Civic�s MacPherson strut, and multi-link rear suspension improves responsiveness and feedback.
