    i-VTEC explained! *EDITED*

    Yep, VTEC-e is different again, only opening one of the inlet valves partly when cruising, to save fuel and create a good swirl, which makes a better and more efficient combustion. I thought I put on here descriptions of the different types but I may be wrong, was a while ago now!

    Just out of interest the 1.6 vtec we have gives around 160 bhp yet the 1.6 vtec a mate had on his forecourt was 108 I think. Whats the reason for the huge difference in power

    Different types of VTEC mate, the 160 bhp 1.6 twincam VTI 'B Series' engine is very similar to the 1.8 you have in your 'M's in terms of the way the Valves are controlled, it is also controlled and present on the inlet and exhaust cams, however the 1.6 'D Series' engine fitted to a EP2 civic sport, (108 bhp) only has VTEC on its inlet cam.  There are quite a few different types of VTEC, just cos a car has a VTEC badge on its wing, it doesnt mean its a quick one......

    Wow Paul, the car is looking absolutely stunning bud! The ATR spoiler really sets it off, it was one of the things I was going to do to mine when I had her. Wheels also looking sweet and the 6 hours cleaning it, but didnt have time to wax it???? So you just washed it and polished it and took 6 hours to do that? :o:o Now thats what I call a proper job!! :lol:

    You need anymore work done to it mate, you can clean mine while I do it!! Sounds like a fair trade.... :lol:8-):mrgreen:

    You sure it aint leaking from the VTEC solinoid valve mate, they can often leak from there, new gasket sorts it out! Or even the rocker cover gasket leaks in that area if not changed at the service? Worth a look anyway? Cars looking awesome as usual mate! 8-)
