I took my 2.0 to the Wake the Dragon event last year and had a blast.

I'm lowered with Z rated tires and pushed my car hard. I was hanging with the Si's and CTR's pretty damn good. In fact, several people commented that they were surprised I was in a LX.

I did feel like I was missing some throttle response coming out of tight turns though. Hopefully, running KTuner this year will help with that. I can't wait!
Awesome! I'm really curious about how the Ktuner works on a 2.0L.. I'd love to see some 0-60 comparisons or just some feedback in general. I've been waiting for a 2.0L owner to speak up but I haven't heard anything yet..

Also, lets say i'm taking my 2.0L to autoX or something along those lines.. Would y'all justify using a better oil like Amsoil?

As long as the oil is the recommended viscosity you’ll be fine. Just give it a good oil and filter change before you go. Then when you are done at the autoX give it another change.

Of course, but do you think the benefits of Amsoil would be worth the price?

I'm all in spending the extra money on my car if it means she's healthier with it.

Well I understand that. I feel the same way, but I finally realized that there is not a big enough difference that even justifies using one brand over another. I used amsoil manual transmission fluid and ended up going back to Honda fluid because it felt smoother. And I’m still waiting to see real proof that one is better for your engine. I use full synthetic Honda engine oil and filters to.
