This technology isn't new or revolutionary, Ford's been using it in trucks for years (both the 302 & 351W). Spark advance/timing is variable by +/- ~2 degrees, based on input from the knock sensor. As for high tech,
there are snowmobiles that have this technology. I'm not sure about jets though. By the way VTEC stands for Variable Valve Timing & Lift Electronic Control System and has nothing to do with ignition timing. Try here for more info http://www.howstuffworks.com/question229.htm

I was wondering how anyone could make a statement like that and be serious. Guess I didn't get your point.
Sorry if I got too technical, I was just trying to help you out. If you didn't see it that way, then you're just wrong.

P.S. Abendx, You? A smart a$$? Never.
P.P.S. I'd NEVER tell anyone to buy a Chevy.
