Derogatory name for Barskahai's (Armenian's from Iran). They were given this name because they all seem to drive Honda or Acura's. Some of their cars are actually equipped with VTEC engine's, the others just buy VTEC emblems and decals from an auto parts store and apply them to their "VTEC".
The 'VTEC's seem to think that these cars are so fast and so cool, that nothing else can compare to them. To spot a 'VTEC' simply go to Glendale, CA and drive down Brand Blvd. Look for a Honda Civic with some kind of VTEC decal and a huge wing, listen for the fart-in-a-can exaust and the bumping techno music. They appear to be fast cars, but even the slowest car can do 60mph down a city street.

Duuude-bro, check out my VTEC, I just got a speaker that makes a sound like a blow-off valve.
Duuude-bro, you just got a turbo and a cold air intake? There is no way that Viper will have any chance against you.
Duude-bro, I just got some plastic Spinner hub caps for my VTEC.

Get the VTEC mug.a variable cam system developed by honda to help improve fuel economy. Sadly ricers often mistaken this as technology that "magicaly" makes 50+ hp on there 4 banger motors
Ricer: I didn't win because the Vtec didn't kick in!!
Me: STFU Retard! buy a turbo or but a V6 in that thing, you ricers give us REAL Import Tuners a bad name!!

Buying a Vtech Phone becasue it is cheap, but buying so many in the long run that it would have been better to just buy a better quality phone in the first place.

Get the Vtech Phone mug.VTEC(Variable Valve Timing and Engine Control) is a technology employed by Honda in many of it's cars. Since it's development, VTEC has become popular among uneducated ricers, who flaunt their cars by bragging about having VTEC, all in attempt to intimidate their potential opponents. Unfortunately, ricers overlook the fact the VTEC does not engage until rpm is close to redline. As a result, VTEC is essentially useless in racing because the car has to be shifted not long after it has become active. VTEC also does nothing to improve torque in the low rpm range.
Although VTEC is meant to improve the performance of low displacement engines, it does not work nearly as effectively as a volume efficiency and performance system, in comparison to turbochargers or superchargers.
Ricers believe that VTEC, along with the addition of horsepower enhancing Walmart stickers, body kits and massive spoilers, will allow them to defeat all other street opponents in their mom's economy car. And when ricers lose every time, they typically blame it on their VTEC not kicking in, or because their NOS(empty NOS containers in their trunk) never kick in.

- Ricer pulls next to me at a red light.
Ricer: Ah dawg, you wanna race, yo? I got VTEC, yo (He repeatedly revs his car to the rev limiter)
Me: Umm, you realize that VTEC doesn't help your mom's car win races, especially against actual performance cars, don't you?
Ricer: Well I got JDM VTEC, yo. Its wayyy better.
- The stoplight turns green and the ricer stalls his manual Civic because he only just learned to drive standard today.

Get the vtec mug.VTEC is a loose acro for Variable Valve Timing and Electronic Lift Control.
VTEC is a system which optimizes the power output and fuel consumption of a motor. Some VTEC models were built towards fuel economy , while others were for performance.
VTEC is engaged at all times. It enhances the engines low torque torque by enabling a cam for low rpm torque duty. Then crosses over to a high rpm cam profile which takes advantage of the high rpm and optimizes the power there. This in turn creates two motors in one , Honda has used this engineering along with lower powered 4cyl motors to create fuel efficient motors that produce power levels of V6 motors , with a more peppier , rev happy and refined feel.
It takes about .1-.01 seconds for VTEC to engage to the higher rpm cam mode. A big misconception with VTEC is that it kicks in at only one point. This is wrong , it is on all the time. Its setup to give a little surge when going into it for a number of reasons, this is why most tend to believe it only comes on at higher rpm or have VTEC off and on. It is always active at low and high rpm. The main reason it is so effective.
To take into consideration a 5.0 8cyl 93 mustang vs a 2.2l 4cyl prelude will beat the mustang at low and high speeds. This is due to the optimized system and low vehicle weight. This is the basis for all of honda's vehicles. Which provides a cleaner environment and has lower costs to operate. More info can be found on VTEC systems @ superhonda.com
