the ford focus has a zetec. It seems that other car companies are trying to run with the popularity of the "....tec" engines. Although, none compare.

its funny cuz when other companies spoof the vtec name, they fail to realize that vtec actually stands for something.
WTF does D-TEC stand for?
Dumbass Timing Electronic Control?

mitsu has Mi-vec, chevy has ECO-tec can't think of any others. Varible valve timing has been around long before the word vtec came into play. I think they were on old racin ferraris

well variable valve timing is basically incorporated into every vehicle these days, its the lift control that not all cars have.
