With a specific output of 153 hp/L, this VTEC engine is the most powerful street-legal Honda ever to reach America.

Are VTEC engines reliable?

Yes, Honda VTEC engines are VERY good because they’re engines that run more efficiently than engines without variable valve timing, literally have two personalities in one engine, very reliable mechanical system, and they have a unparalleled high horsepower for a naturally aspirated engine with just 4 and 6 cylinders.

Does VTEC make a car faster?

When VTEC kicks in, you can hear how much more air the engine is pulling in, and the power difference is very palpable. It goes from being slightly faster than an average economy car to something that is pretty quick and responsive. Other cars with VTEC generally have less noticeable changes between the cam profiles.

Is VTEC better than Turbo?

Turbo produces more torque and horsepower obviously while VTEC is more about pushing the maximum horsepower out of the engine since torque on VTEC cars can only be felt on VTEC range meaning anywhere after 5,500RPMs but yet the torque is still nothing compared with a turbo’s torque output.

Can you feel VTEC kick?

Re: What does it feel like when VTEC kicks in? ( the GSR has a lower switch point than most other dohc vtec cars, and its tuned to be very smooth and transparent. So if the car is stock, you won’t feel any abrupt switch. you might hear it though, if you listen carefully. with intake and exhaust, its easier to hear.

Which is better i-VTEC or VTEC?

VTC is active at all RPMs. i-VTEC – intelligent Variable valve Timing and lift Electronic Control. This is a combination of both the VTEC and the VTC technologies – in other words, i-VTEC = VTEC + VTC. The only difference between this i-VTEC engine and the older VTEC engines is the addition of the VTC system.

Does VTEC add horsepower?

This means that while HP increases progressively at the point of vtec actuation there is and acceleration in the rise of HP. Easily stated, HP is gained faster after vtec actuation. There isn’t a “jump” in HP but merely a boost in HP gains.

At what RPM does VTEC kick in?

Geez, most cars will redline at lower RPM than that. It depends on the engine. Most Hondas had vtec crossover in the low to mid 5000rpm range. You had 2 camshaft profiles, 1 optimized for low-mid rpm driveability and fuel economy and another for mid-high rpm power.

Why is VTEC so good?

How does VTEC feel?

It’s loud and slightly more pushy. That’s it. Think of turbo lag, but like a light switch and for a turbo about the size of the ones on your keychain. That’s VTEC.

Is VTEC better than VVTi?

It is Variable Valve Timing and Lift Electronic Control with intelligence. The VVTi only alters the timing while i-VTEC alters the timing as well as lift of the valves. Also, the VVTi technology works only on the intake valve. The i-VTEC on the other hand makes changes to both, the intake and the exhaust valves.

Does VTEC save gas?

VTEC (Variable Valve Timing & Lift Electronic Control) is a system developed by Honda to improve the volumetric efficiency of a four-stroke internal combustion engine, resulting in higher performance at high RPM, and lower fuel consumption at low RPM.

Is it bad to hit VTEC?

No you will not harm your car by hitting VTEC a few times a day and redlining it. I can totally attest for the durability of these motors. Just keep up with your oil changes and maintainence, and you’re golden. It’s a honda.

Can you hit VTEC in reverse?

In a straight line, ‘hitting VTEC’ often results in noticeably more power and a satisfying sound as the cam profiles shift. The clip below answers that age-old question and to our surprise, yes, you can hit VTEC in reverse, not that doing so serves any real purpose.

Does hitting VTEC burn oil?

the vtec system depends on oil pressure, during this process oil can be burned off. btw the f20c isn’t the only motor to burn oil, in fact all DOHC VTEC motors from honda will burn oil during vtec operation. it doesnt matter how well your oil rings have seated during breakin, if you vtec often, you will lose oil.

The VTEC system essentially combines low-RPM fuel efficiency and stability with high-RPM performance. And the transition occurs seamlessly, allowing for smooth performance across the entire powerband. The switching operation between the two cam lobes is controlled by the engine computer.

Is VTEC only for Honda?

So yes, VTEC is Honda only and yes, there are other technologies that achieve the same, or very similar, goals.
