basically its an extra intake cam that is connected to the other intake cam in a higher rpm and it helps keep the valve open longer. the reason they have the vtec is that they are able to have multiple camshafts.

just to add. its like having a more aggressive cam top end so u dont have to worry about impossible idle.

yeah... i still think we should call it VVTALEC y0

 

In the most general of terms, it is two different cam profiles (duration and lift) on one cam shaft. The "mild" lobes are most effective at lower RPMs and the "wild" lobes are most effective at higher RPMs.

At some specified RPM (variables include which ECU you are running, whether or not it's chipped, if you have a V-AFC, etc.) the engine begins to run off the high RPM cam profile.
