The VVT-I technology is pretty cool, my Vibe benefits from the technology and I have seen the car learn from my driving in the past month. How? Well funny enough before I began this FE kick, the shift point on my auto was roughly 2500-2700 rpm unless I was dogging it. Now that I try and control my shifts at lower rpms the computer itself has adjusted and now automatically shifts gears for me @ 2000 rpm, the final gear @ 1800. I noticed just the other day when I kept my acceleration steady instead of trying to force the shift at lower speeds ... I also notice now, that at idle, if left to idle more than 15 sec I drop an extra 200 rpm from 800 to 600 approx.
That impresses me ...
