Simple question, at what point on the dip stick would the oil be on when it gets "dangerous" to hit VTEC or rev high?

Presumably below the minimum mark. I checked my oil yeserday, I was low. It needed a full quart to get back towards the high end between the holes. I hope I didn't hurt anything.

Yes, it's between the alternator and the valve cover. If you pull it out all the way, you will see two small holes at the VERY bottom of the dipstick. The oil needs to be between those 2 holes.

Yeah if you see nothing you should add oil quick!! Remember it is a must to check oil with the car off on a level surface. Even better when the engine is cold.

Preludes/Hondas burn oil...I check at every fillup to be safe..

I was used to oil consumption but lately I noticed a little more than usual....turns out I have a leak in my oil pan gasket..not a big deal..but don't always dismiss a loss of oil as a 'Honda' thing...cause you may find out one day when you got no oil and blow your motor.
