mbeach,
This is just my understanding of "variable intake" after having mine apart...take it for what it's worth.
There is a set of "butterflys" in the intake that, when open, lengthen the intake runners thus increasing the velocity of the charge going into the cylinder.
I kinda miss that little spike in the powerband since s/c install...but not all that much.

Now lets just start shaving down some weight on these things and get that 1/4 mile eta down to a wee better time.
I havent heard much from FeatherFoot lately on his research. That would be another major aid.

Oh, one more thing I just noticed.
Jay's VX is not likely down on power when compared to Cyrk's, even though Jay peaks at 20+ hp less on the graph.
Jay's run(s) were done on a Dyno Dynamics unit, and Cyrk's were run on a DynoJet.
The debate rages, but most professional tuners give the nod to the Dyno Dynamics dynamometer for accuracy. Dynojets have been known to be more optimistic.
I've noticed a 10% difference from dyno to dyno and from day to day with the same car.
