quote// The solution that Honda came up with is the VTEC mechanism: open the valves nice and wide at high RPMs, but open them not as much at low RPMs. So now you have a engine with smooth operation at low RPMs, and high power output at high RPMs.
And that is basically what VTEC is. quote//

i wish there was a simpilar explanation.
i dont really understand. isnt that what high lift cams do? is make the intake valve stay open a little longer to allow a bit more fuel/air into the combustion chamber? can someone explain vtec as simple as possible?

im gonna go on a limb and close this thread.

you have a couple of very good sources to look at now, and if all else fails, try searching the boards for explainations.

try this one from the Integra section
