VTEC is a loose acro for Variable Valve Timing and Electronic Lift Control.

VTEC is a system which optimizes the power output and fuel consumption of a motor. Some VTEC models were built towards fuel economy , while others were for performance.

VTEC is engaged at all times. It enhances the engines low torque torque by enabling a cam for low rpm torque duty. Then crosses over to a high rpm cam profile which takes advantage of the high rpm and optimizes the power there. This in turn creates two motors in one , Honda has used this engineering along with lower powered 4cyl motors to create fuel efficient motors that produce power levels of V6 motors , with a more peppier , rev happy and refined feel.

It takes about .1-.01 seconds for VTEC to engage to the higher rpm cam mode. A big misconception with VTEC is that it kicks in at only one point. This is wrong , it is on all the time. Its setup to give a little surge when going into it for a number of reasons, this is why most tend to believe it only comes on at higher rpm or have VTEC off and on. It is always active at low and high rpm. The main reason it is so effective.

To take into consideration a 5.0 8cyl 93 mustang vs a 2.2l 4cyl prelude will beat the mustang at low and high speeds. This is due to the optimized system and low vehicle weight. This is the basis for all of honda's vehicles. Which provides a cleaner environment and has lower costs to operate. More info can be found on VTEC systems @ superhonda.com

VTEC provides an optimized cam profile for the desired rpm.

The whole idea of a VTEC Engine is to have 2 engines in one
A Smooth Fuel Effcient engine at low revs for normal driving
That turns into a Agressive Race Inspired Engine at high revs

Today spanked a turbo eclipse as soon as i hit vtec in first gear

Vtec

a vtec engine pushes more hp and better acceleration at higher rpms there for making it faster than the lx and dx yet it is still one of the shittiest engines out there, the word vtec is used to scare people when in all truthfulness it doesnt do much at all

my porsche 944 whooped the fuck out of that honda civic with vtec

VTEC

A word used to make fun of a gay-ass ricer. A real valve thingy Honda uses though.

"Dude, did you see that stupid asian driving his Del-SLOW?"
"Haha, yea. What a douche. VTEC! Hahahaha"

Killer fast Honda engines that last forever.

The putz is still whining and crying because he's a racist that got beat by a Honda VTEC.

Honda VTEC engines dominate.
