Default Wow Chevy does Vtec now....

Check out this dope ass ride I saw on 64 by Waynesboro a week back. I had to take a picture of this for all of you guys. It says "VTEC Tuning" on it.

if you look closely, you can tell the sticker/emblem saids "VTEC tuning" hahaha. this decal is available at your local autozones.

at least this decal has a genuine font honda used for its "VTEC" letterings. i hate it even more when i see a "Type R" badging with times new roman font.

actually...GM does have a variable cam system....but its mainly used to reduce emissions, its on the 5 and 6 cylinder I engines...in the new trucks and Trailblazer. its kinda cool...IMO.....uses the exhaust cam timing change to revert exhaust gas pulses into the cylinder...in essence, being a built in EGR valve.


yet more pointless info...

No, in 93-97 chevorlet had vtec and the 3.8L V6. The cars are pretty quick for a v6. The motors always had the technology but did not advertise.
