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.)

As i understand it, variable valve timing is more about emmisions and economy than it is performance......

that is not entirely true.

vvti is only for emissions on the eco box motors aka 1zfe.

But once you get into the IS-F engine, you will get vvt for horse power.
