Be careful with this. I showed my girlfriend VTEC and all of the associated "VTEC YO!" funny pics. Now, she screams "VTEC YO!" at the top of her lungs whenever I'm running up an onramp! Crazy.

well the 2zz-ge engine in the Celica gts, matrix xrs, and Lotus Elise have VVTL ("lift"). Its similar to vtec, just actuated differently. The standard toyota engines, do however have VVTi.
