Hi, so here is some info I got that tells the different manufactures Valve timeing tech.
Enjoy :thumb:
VVT implementations
Alfa Romeo
Twin Cam  some versions are equipped with Variable Valve Timing technology.
Twin Spark  is equipped with Variable Valve Timing technology.
JTS  is equipped with Variable Valve Timing technology, both intake and exhaust.

"StarJet" FIRE-based engine.
Ford
VCT Variable Cam Timing  Varies valve timing by rotating the camshaft.
Ti-VCT Twin Independent Variable Camshaft with two fully variable camshafts used in Ford Sigma engine and Ford Duratec engine.
Chrysler
 Varies valve timing through the use of concentric camshafts developed by Mechadyne enabling dual-independent inlet/exhaust valve adjustment on the 2008 Dodge Viper.
General Motors Corporation (GM)
VVT  Varies valve timing continuously throughout the RPM range for both intake and exhaust for improved performance in both overhead valve and overhead cam engine applications.(See also Northstar System).
DCVCP (Double Continuous Variable Cam Phasing)  Varies intake and exhaust camshaft timing continuously with hydraulic vane type phaser; available on Family 1, Family 0, and Family II engines.
Alloytec  Continuously variable camshaft phasing for inlet cams; continuously variable camshaft phasing for inlet cams and exhaust cams (High Output Alloytec).
Honda
VTEC  Varies duration, timing and lift by switching between two different sets of cam lobes.
VTEC-E  This system is designed solely for the purpose of improving fuel economy. A variation of the VTEC mechanism is used to create an offset of lift between the two intake valves, one valve opening only slightly to prevent accumulation of fuel in the intake port. The asymmetrical opening of the intake valves creates a powerful swirl in the combustion chamber and allows for a very lean intake charge to be used under certain conditions. Under normal operation the two intake valve rocker arms are locked together and both valves follow the normal lift cam profile.
i-VTEC  In high-output DOHC 4 cylinder engines, the i-VTEC system adds continuous intake cam phasing (timing) to traditional VTEC. In economy-oriented SOHC and DOHC 4-cylinder engines the i-VTEC system increases engine efficiency by delaying the closure of the intake valves under certain conditions and by using an electronically controlled throttle valve to reduce pumping loss. In SOHC V6 engines the i-VTEC system is used to provide Variable Cylinder Management which deactivates one bank of three cylinders during low demand operation.
Advanced VTEC  This is the latest Honda VVT system and is the most unusual of all the VTEC systems. Rather than switching between cam lobes the Advanced VTEC system uses intermediate rocker arms with a variable fulcrum to continuously vary intake valve timing, duration and lift.
Hyundai
MPI CVVT  Varies power, torque, exhaust system, and engine response.
Iran Khodro
CVVT-i - Continuous Variable Valve Timing Intelligence which is used for EF7 & EF4 engines of the IKCO EF engines family.
Kawasaki
 Varies position of cam by changing oil pressure thereby advancing and retarding the valve timing, 2008 Concours 14 (also known as the 1400GTR).
Lexus
VVT-iE  Continuously varies the intake camshaft timing using an electric actuator.
Mazda
S-VT  Continually varies intake timing and crank angle using an oil control valve actuated by the ECU to control oil pressure.
Mitsubishi
MIVEC  Varies valve timing, duration and lift by switching between two different sets of cam lobes.
The 4B1 engine series uses a different variant of MIVEC which varies timing (phase) of both intake and exhaust camshafts continuously.
The 4N1 engine family is the world's first to feature a variable valve timing system applied to passenger car diesel engines.
Nissan
N-VCT  Varies the rotation of the cam(s) only, does not alter lift or duration of the valves.
VVL  Varies timing, duration, and lift of the intake and exhaust valves by using two different sets of cam lobes.
CVTCS - introduced with the HR15DE, HR16DE, MR18DE and MR20DE engines in September 2004 on the Nissan Tiida and North American version named Nissan Versa (in 2007); and finally the Nissan Sentra (in 2007). Also used on the new MR16DDT
VVEL - introduced with the VQ37VHR Nissan VQ engine engine in 2007 on the Infiniti G37.
Porsche
VarioCam  Varies intake timing by adjusting tension of a cam chain.
VarioCam Plus  Varies intake valve timing by rotating the cam in relation to the cam sprocket as well as duration, timing and lift of the intake and exhaust valves by switching between two different sets of cam lobes.
Proton
Campro CPS  Varies intake valve timing and lift by switching between two sets of cam lobes without using rocker arms as in most variable valve timing systems. Debuted in the 2008 Proton Gen-2 CPS[8][9] and the 2008 Proton Waja CPS.
VVT introduced in the Waja 1.8's F4P renault engine (Toyota supplies the VVT to renault)
PSA Peugeot Citroën
CVVT  Continuous variable valve timing.
Renault
Clio Renault Sport 172, 172 Cup, 182, 182 Cup, Trophy, 197, 197 Cup, 200, and Clio V6 Mk2 VVT â€â€
Megane 1.6 vvt variable valve timing. Clio Mk4 Dynamique S 1.6 VVT
Rover
VVC  Varies timing with an eccentric disc.
Suzuki
 VVT  Suzuki M engine
Subaru
AVCS  Varies timing (phase) with hydraulic pressure, used on turbocharged and six-cylinder Subaru engines.
AVLS  Varies duration, timing and lift by switching between two different sets of cam lobes (similar to Honda VTEC). Used by non-turbocharged Subaru engines.
Toyota
VVT  Toyota 4A-GE 20-Valve engine introduced VVT in the 1992 Corolla GT-versions.
VVT-i  Continuously varies the timing of the intake camshaft, or both the intake and exhaust camshafts (depending on application).
VVTL-i  Continuously varies the timing of the intake valves. Varies duration, timing and lift of the intake and exhaust valves by switching between two different sets of cam lobes.
Valvematic
Vauxhall
- VVT used in the facelift Vectra 1.8 engines, Astra's and Corsa's.
Volkswagen Group
 VVT introduced with later revisions of the 1.8t engine, and the 30-valve 2.8 L V6. Similar to VarioCam, the intake timing intentionally runs advanced and a retard point is calculated by the ECU. A hydraulic tensioner retards the intake timing. Most modern VW Group petrol engines now include VVT on either the inlet cam, or both inlet and exhaust cams, as in their V6, V8 and V10 engines.
Volvo
CVVT  Continuous variable valve timing on intake and/or exhaust camshafts (depending on application).
CPS  Changes valve timing, duration and lift of the intake valves by switching between two different sets of cam lobes. Same basic technology as Porsches VarioCam Plus with switching direct-acting tappets. To date this is only used on Volvos short inline-6 (SI6) naturally-aspirated 3.2 L engine.
Yamaha
 VCT (Variable Cam Timing) Varies position of cam thereby advancing and retarding the valve timing.
