i would imagine that the CVVT would be a BETA III

Just a thought... i doubt it will even be named a beta

So far its not out... its in development and it could just be speculation

Till its out.. we dont know for sure

BTW... vtec doesnt rule, it just makes a funny noise

lol

I was going to recommend you purchase another car, followed by a picture of the famed Delorean from the "Back to the Future" movie series, but I figured that would be off-topic enough that I shouldn't

If memory serves, you guys across the pond are gonna get the new BETA's before us yanks will. I still don't recall any release dates that were earlier than mid-late 2003 (the 2004 model year release)

I have some questions as to what they've done on the head casting, and what motor they're REALLY gonna put together with this new technology. But so far it's 100% speculation frown

I don't know that it's a VVT setup, and they didn't publish any power output ratings. But I do know at least the valve cover is different.

Notice the placement of the oil fill cap, and check out the different intake manifold...

You gotta be kidding me? Dude, I could scrape three extra horsepower out a 1st gen Beta with probably a resistor and a soldering iron.

That's lame. frown
