Benefits of going VVT-i? Options

[Random_Stranger]

Ok, so I just found out that VVT-i was like dual variable valve timing for HP and TQ. So anyone know how this is beneficial or worse in let's say a 3sgte engine? As I am aware there is a 4th gen engine that has this VVT-i technology (I think).

(I had made a n00b out of myself with the original posting, so I made this thread up to make up for it in another n00bish fashion, but with more to gain from it than my original thread, so my bad.)

reply to my long question plz

I have to confess i dont really know much about egr! i'm just glad the beams doesnt have egr but its not going to help with power, but then its also not usually on all the time as its valve controlled, only time i've come across it was on the honda h22, i guess it'll depend on the implementation. I do think it will have minimal impact though.

as for the integra there is so many differences between the versions of the b series it could just be a difference in spec, i dont know anything about the usdm version, but for example the uk type-r has a really restrictive exhaust manifold that loses it heaps of power, the jdm version gets a really nice manifold, swapping out the manifold on the uk type-r releases quite a bit of power
