  2.  GangBalls69_Estonia  VTEC is a type of variable valve-timing system developed and used by Honda. It stands for V ariable Valve T iming & Lift E lectronic C ontrol. Learn how to use a search engine bro, its right there at your fingertips!

  4.  GangBalls69_Estonia  "nope, vtec doesn't include variable valve timing" Whats the VT in VTEC stand for? ☠️

  5.  GangBalls69_Estonia  what does the EC in VTEC stand for? Did you read my replies? Shoulda just taken the L bruh ☠️

  6.  GangBalls69_Estonia  What does the VT in VTEC stand for? You can read right? The VTEC system uses two (or occasionally three) camshaft profiles and hydraulically selects between profiles. It was invented by Honda engineer Ikuo Kajitani.[1][2] It is distinctly different from standard VVT (variable valve timing) systems which change only the valve timings and do not change the camshaft profile or valve lift in any way. The VTEC system provides the engine with valve timing optimized for both low and high RPM operations. In basic form, the single cam lobe and follower/rocker arm of a conventional engine is replaced with a locking multi-part rocker arm and two cam profiles: one optimized for low-RPM stability and fuel efficiency, and the other designed to maximize high-RPM power output. The switching operation between the two cam lobes is controlled by the ECU which takes account of engine oil pressure, engine temperature, vehicle speed, engine speed and throttle position. Using these inputs, the ECU is programmed to switch from the low lift to the high lift cam lobes when certain conditions are met. At the switch point a solenoid is actuated that allows oil pressure from a spool valve to operate a locking pin which binds the high RPM rocker arm to the low RPM ones. From this point on, the valves open and close according to the high-lift profile, which opens the valve further and for a longer time. The switch-over point is variable, between a minimum and maximum point, and is determined by engine load. The switch-down back from high to low RPM cams is set to occur at a lower engine speed than the switch-up (representing a hysteretic cycle) to avoid a situation in which the engine is asked to operate continuously at or around the switch-over point.

  7.  GangBalls69_Estonia  bro did you even watch the entire video? Or did you just get midway thru n thought u knew better, hence completely missing the gotchya part at the end where he drives home the point about this being a comparison to "traditional" engines which don't include technology such as VVT and VVL which pretty much are im every car since about the 90's - the exact implementation of VVT and VVL varies by manufacturer. Had you watched it all you would know this and that what you are trying to do is what the whole entire video was about - why FreeValve isn't a big deal. What you are trying to argue is the equivalent of saying a gearbox with 2 or 3 gears doesn't have variable gear ratios because it's not a CVT. Nobody but you thinks that VVT equates to a system that can infinitely vary the timing, or put another way that it's constantly variable. Sure, Honda's system can only dynamically switch between 2 or 3 different cam lobes but that IS variable valve timing. I mean, its right in the name.. the VT stands for Variable Valve Timing but here you are trying to deny reality to save face. Watch from 9:40 where the gotchya is revealed. Or don't and continue to make yourself look like a fool who doesn't understand basic concepts 🤷 You must be fun at parties! 😂

  8.  GangBalls69_Estonia  in direct answer tho, the B16A2 as you've stated yourself is first-gen VTEC. The VT in VTEC stand for Variable Valve Timing and is implemented using hydraulics to switch between different cam profiles, which in turn have different timing, duration and lift. You understand that i-VTEC is the current iteration of VTEC, yet don't seem to realize that conceptually from a high level it's the same as the first generation. Sure, it's been tweaked and improved but fundamentally it's still just VTEC. Now that i've directly answered your question... what does the VT in VTEC stand for? (Shoulda just taken that L ☠️)

  9.  GangBalls69_Estonia  What does the VT in VTEC stand for? If an engine has a system that can dynamically vary the valve timing*, ie it's *variable depending upon some condition, what is called what? Honda VTEC is one of the most iconic implementations of VVT+VVL that has stood the test of time, as the OP states... Honda got it right. Keep on crying "vTeC iS NoT VaRIaBLe VaLvE TiMInG" whilst having zero sources to backup your claim 🤣

  10.  GangBalls69_Estonia  provide just one source or reference to back up your claim that first-gen VTEC is not VVT nor alters the valve timing. I'll wait. Here i'll go first showing that VTEC having two cam profiles is VVT, from your favourite site: Early variable valve timing systems used discrete (stepped) adjustment. For example, one timing would be used below 3500 rpm and another used above 3500 rpm. More advanced "continuous variable valve timing" systems offer continuous (infinite) adjustment of the valve timing. Therefore, the timing can be optimized to suit all engine speeds and conditions https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variable_valve_timing -- Remember what i said about you trying to argue a gearbox with 2 gears vs CVT, i'm well aware of what you are trying to do.. we can go back n forth like this for as long as you like but riddle me this... What does the VT in VTEC stand for? Do you not know? Are you unable to answer this simple question?!

  11. @Chronic Gaming  lol where u go bro? You just gunna change ya username, delete messages and dip like that? Shoulda just taken that L, way easier than the witness protection route but i'll take it. Have a good one mate, no hard feelings 💀
