That doesn’t look like a V-8 stuffed in there- more like a tricked-out 4 cylinder.

That is a Honda
VTEC engine. It is definitely a 4-cylinder. It looks like the DOHC version, but the photo is too small for me to be sure.

Yeah, it's an in-line 4. It's a V-Tech Honda motor. They only come with four holes.
Honda made a few versions, some with around 200HP.
A co-worker was told by the local import repair shop to remove the badging that identified his Civic del Sol as having a V-Tech. They said the local car thieves seek them out, as they are the hot motor to have for the four-banger race scene.
I can't remember if the badge said V-Tech, or if it was some other identifier.
