at lower rpms while delivering a high output
at higher engine speeds.
Whereas traditional VTEC operation changes
valve opening duration based on higher oil pressure during high
rpm operation
at one side of the valvetrain's rocker arms, the Civic's i - VTEC system can switch
valve timing duration
at low rpm and
low oil pressure using two hydraulic actuators on both sides of the intake rocker arm.
Dual cam phasing complements the turbocharging system by optimizing
valve timing
at lower rpm for best turbo response and quick engine torque build - up time.
Special by - pass
valves in the exhaust allow a quieter exhaust note
at low speeds;
at 4000
