This may have been covered before... but was wandering which one is better ?... and by "better" i mean... quicker/faster/more effective (speed wise).... for example... put an integra and a fto for a race (both stock)... which would win (assuming both drivers are the same)

lol, yay, this discussion again
wonder how long this time before it gets locked.
yeah basically this is a non ending cycle. maggsy summed it pretty well.
its the same technology with different names. same applies for toyota's vvti.
and harry, watch your language. remember this is just text, so no one can really tell the tone ppl are typing in. so if in doubt just let it go as a joke
(btw that wasnt meant to be harsh, just a reminder
)
and also if u search for it, you would've seen the thread about VTEC YO!!!!! (pretty sure it's locked cos it got out of hand from ppl repeating themselves in an endless cycle lol)

yea no worries... sorry for language... just wanted to know the difference and now i know... cos before i bought my car i was looking at Integra's and was wandering if i made the right choice in regards to the power of the car...not that it matters anymore... just something to add to my knowledge...i never thought they were the same thing named differently...and now i do.. and that makes all the difference !!!
