Author: http://vtec.urbanup.com/1875963. (VTEC) (288↑, 102↓)VTEC - Variable Valve timing and Lift Electronic Control and is an electronic and mechanical system in some Honda engines that allows the engine to have multiple camshafts. VTEC engines have an extra intake cam with its own rocker, which follows this cam. The profile on this cam keeps the intake valve open longer than the other cam profile. At low engine speeds, this rocker is not connected to any valves. At high engine speeds, a piston locks the extra rocker to the two rockers that control the two intake valves.Honda has VTEC to increase efficiency not increase performance.

VVL parts are rare and hard to come by. VTC only works on the intake cam.Honda guy: yeah i got more power cause i gots vtec. nissan guy: *coughs* no torque *coughs* ford guy: you know he's right Honda and Nissan guy: shut up, you car doesn't even run.

Author: Lord of the Porings http://vtec.urbanup.com/8319298. (VTEC) (33↑, 9↓)Honda's name for their variable valve timing system that happens to include electronic lift control. (See also : MIVEC, VVTL-i, VariCam Plus, VANOS, and VVL. ) For combustion engines, it allows the increase of air and fuel consumption when VTEC is engaged. Due to its "lift control", VTEC doesn't engage until higher RPMs to save fuel. Once engaged however, fuel economy drops significantly as performance increases by 20 - 30 horsepower with an increase of torque efficiency. To market their "economy" cars, Honda used VTEC to have higher horse-power claims. Most of their horsepower claims are at high RPM marks (7,500 or higher), whereas other motor companies make their claims at lower RPM marks (5,500 or below). This confused most buyers as they thought that engaging their VTEC would allow for them to enjoy peak fuel economy AND peak performance at the same time (hence grew the term to mock VTEC-users; "vtak just kicked in yo\!") To add to the illusion of performance (but keep the status of "economy car"), most VTEC-motors were dropped into chassis with a front-wheel drive drive train (with the S2000 and NSX exempt). Due to their front-wheeled drive pull, some VTEC users became euphoric in what seemed to be a "fast" car(though it was mostly because of the "pull" force from the car being a FWD vehicle). Ultimately, the concept of variable valve timing and lift control is now used by other car companies.Person A : "I got a VTEC motor." *Grin* Person B : "I bet that guy is a ricer." "My RSX goes 0-60 in 7.8 seconds. It's got a VTEC." Person B : "Dude, why do you have that gay looking spoiler on your Civic?" :/ Person A : "Are you stupid or something\! Dude, it's got a VTEC. There has to be something to hold down its rear-end or I could spin the fuck out\!"
Author: vtakk\!\! http://vtec.urbanup.com/39273229. (VTEC) (106↑, 84↓)VTEC (which stands for Variable Valve Timing and Lift Electronic Control) is an electronic and mechanical system in some Honda engines that allows the engine to effectively have multiple camshafts. By having two or more camshaft profiles, low-end torque, and top-end horsepower can be realized. It was first featured in the 1992 Acura NSX and 1992 Honda Prelude VTEC. It was later made famous by the popular Fast N Furious Movie when the Korean guy w/ the S2000 won the Jetta 1.8T.VTEC just kicked in yo\!

Author: I special http://vtec.urbanup.com/204671612. (VTEC) (19↑, 13↓)Derogatory name for Barskahai's (Armenian's from Iran). They were given this name because they all seem to drive Honda or Acura's. Some of their cars are actually equipped with VTEC engine's, the others just buy VTEC emblems and decals from an auto parts store and apply them to their "VTEC". The 'VTEC's seem to think that these cars are so fast and so cool, that nothing else can compare to them. To spot a 'VTEC' simply go to Glendale, CA and drive down Brand Blvd. Look for a Honda Civic with some kind of VTEC decal and a huge wing, listen for the fart-in-a-can exaust and the bumping techno music. They appear to be fast cars, but even the slowest car can do 60mph down a city street.Duuude-bro, check out my VTEC, I just got a speaker that makes a sound like a blow-off valve. Duuude-bro, you just got a turbo and a cold air intake? There is no way that Viper will have any chance against you. Duude-bro, I just got some plastic Spinner hub caps for my VTEC.

Author: PROSSER TECH http://vtec.urbanup.com/468711214. (VTEC) (2↑, 1↓)VTEC(Variable Valve Timing and Engine Control) is a technology employed by Honda in many of it's cars. Since it's development, VTEC has become popular among uneducated ricers, who flaunt their cars by bragging about having VTEC, all in attempt to intimidate their potential opponents. Unfortunately, ricers overlook the fact the VTEC does not engage until rpm is close to redline. As a result, VTEC is essentially useless in racing because the car has to be shifted not long after it has become active. VTEC also does nothing to improve torque in the low rpm range. Although VTEC is meant to improve the performance of low displacement engines, it does not work nearly as effectively as a volume efficiency and performance system, in comparison to turbochargers or superchargers. Ricers believe that VTEC, along with the addition of horsepower enhancing Walmart stickers, body kits and massive spoilers, will allow them to defeat all other street opponents in their mom's economy car. And when ricers lose every time, they typically blame it on their VTEC not kicking in, or because their NOS(empty NOS containers in their trunk) never kick in.- Ricer pulls next to me at a red light. Ricer: Ah dawg, you wanna race, yo? I got VTEC, yo (He repeatedly revs his car to the rev limiter) Me: Umm, you realize that VTEC doesn't help your mom's car win races, especially against actual performance cars, don't you? Ricer: Well I got JDM VTEC, yo. Its wayyy better. - The stoplight turns green and the ricer stalls his manual Civic because he only just learned to drive standard today.

Author: EK Ferio http://vtec.urbanup.com/136558119. (vtec) (71↑, 87↓)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.comVTEC provides an optimized cam profile for the desired rpm.
