vtech ......variable valve timing and electronic lift control......


two step process occuring at the exact same time.


there is a certain rpm in your motor where volumetric efficiency becomes optimal. at this very time, usually around 4500-5000 rpm. two things happen.

one ....timing is effectively advanced creating more horsepower.

two...... valve lift is increased/higher than it was before. higher valve lift increases horsepower and allows the motor to attain higher rpms without starving.

low lift is utilized at low rpms because it creates more torque.
