Product Information

The herculean task of developing a smarter engine began when Honda’s R&D achieved the first milestone with the REV (Revolution-modulated valve control) valve pausing mechanism. The system was developed in such a way that it could forcibly stop multiple valves when needed to optimize airflow and achieve a stable idling and increased smoothness for low to medium engine operation. This new innovation was first introduced in the Honda CBR400F motorbike in 1983. And with the 2-wheelers substantially enhanced, Honda set its foot to revolutionize the four-wheeled drive. Also, speaking of camshafts, we’ve written plenty of other guides and resources on camshafts that you might find interesting. We’ve discussed the camshaft position sensor, and the signs of a bad camshaft position sensor (such as a P0017 or P0340 error code, or the P0014 Chevy Equinox diagnostics trouble code). The VTEC turbo is an engine series that was introduced in 2013. This engine series had to be created since the car industry has shifted to downsizing. So, smaller engines with turbochargers were the new way to go. And this engine family was part of Honda’s Earth Dreams Technology.

Count on this tip before the conclusion. Remember that maintaining a high rpm all the time could be bad for your engine. It may gradually get the engine of your car worn out. The VTEC engine debuted in India in 2000 and it has enjoyed a legacy of over two decades. Over the years many refurbishments were carried in the VTEC system with the most crucial one being i-VTEC (where “i” stood for intelligent). This technology blended the VTC (Variable Timing Control) with the VTEC mechanisms to produce a highly effective and superior performance. How does the DOHC engine work

VTEC does not do this, and only with a combination of VTEC and VTC, there is a possibility for i-VTEC to work normally. Necessity is the mother of inventions they say. To satisfy the necessity for more performance, mileage, and efficiency, Honda has been at the forefront of pushing innovation and technology. This drive lead them to build an engine that provides both a high power output as well as hassle-free drivability over the entire revolution range. The result was Honda’s pioneer innovation, the VTEC or the Variable Valve Timing & Lift Electronic Control system. In this article, we will have a look at what makes the VTEC engine, a remarkable piece of innovation since the late 1980s. The History of the VTEC Engine Now that we cleared what is VTEC and learned the two main types, we can move on and start learning about the VTEC subtypes. While it combines VTEC and VTC systems, i-VTEC brings the best possibilities. The engine will be powerful and extremely efficient.

When an engine system changes from 3 valves to 4 valves operation, the VTEC technology comes in place. As a result, the camshaft profiles optimize for higher RPMs, and the VTEC technology takes its place in the car operations. What Is a High RPM Engine?

When Does i-VTEC Kick In?

As for the RPM, do not forget one thing. The cars usually hit the Vtec at around 5800RPM as you already know. One of the camshafts was dedicated to the intake and one to the exhaust. This type of design is worse in terms of fuel economy. But lower in complexity when it comes to implementing the VTEC system. Even though, we must admit that no other carmaker achieved the same level of performance as Honda with these designs. This is why this system is one of the most highly regarded ones in the car industry.
