Question about Vtec
first i apologize if this Topic doesn't belong here.... But i was Surfin, Lookin at Car specs and ****, and i found something that confused me...Is Honda the Only car manufactering company that uses vtec. i was lookin at the Mazdaspeed, and their stats told me that the motor had a 1.8 turbocharged Vtec motor. I thought that Honda was the creator of Vtec, or Was it a Typo... Let me know because this is really bothering me
Heres the Link if u want to check it out..

The Celica uses VVTI. Its does more or less the same thing as vtec.
Alot of companies use a "vtec" like system of changing cam timing. Porsche Varioscam, Toyota VVTI, Honda VTEC, Rover VVC, BMW Vanos, Nissan VVL, Mitsubishi MIVEC. Almost every company i can think of has a vtec like system, from Ford to Ferrari.

what he said... most companies have their own forms of variable valve timing.

Re: Question about Vtec (alltech_hybrid)
yeah but Mazda's Site had the word VTEC, not vvti or anything like that...if anyone has links to learn more about the mazda speed, let me know, bc this is really bugging me, that Mazda would use a Honda Name for their parts

Re: Question about Vtec (DxHatch99)
"""In the most basic form a turbocharger can be viewed as an exhaust driven air compressor—or simply, an air pump. A highly sophisticated air pump of course! In general, the more air you can cram into an engine, the more power your engine can create; this is accomplished with the right proportion of fuel and correct spark timing. Engine design integrity as well as engine swept volume, maximum rpm and volumetric efficiency plays a big part in this assumption. In any case, with a turbocharger onboard it makes your small displacement engine think it's really a large cubic inch displacement engine. Your little turbocharged 1.8 VTEC can hang with the domestic big boys and in many cases they can blow the Detroit iron into oblivion. Let’s revisit the turbo gurus (all with the help of our lovely teaching aide) to figure out what an engine can do with a bunch of compressed air."""
This is What Mazda's Site had to say about the MAZDASPEED
Correct, or Incorrect??
