Alan, you just walked all over the two most punishable rules of this board (you spelled vtec wrong, and you should have searched). Some people here give a **** about the rules, and they're gonna blast on you.
I don't give a **** about the rules, so I'll just answer your question. VTEC (notice the spelling) is a variable valve timing system. A vtec cam shaft has two sets of lobes on it, a short one for fuel economy purposes, and a longer one for power. At a certain RPM (it's different on most models), the computer switches the pistons (by way of a few locking pins) from the shorter lobe to the longer lobe, creating more lift and thus more HP. It's like instantly installing a more aggressive cam in your engine.
