Anyways.
subarus VVL (variable valve Lift) is called Active-I i believe .but only works on a intake port. Variable Valve Timing is a different operation.

There are a full range of methods that ultimately accomplish the same thing but to certain degrees. Vanos, Mivec, VVTLNeo, VVT-i, Vtec ...the list goes on..
