4B11 MIVEC engine. MIVEC (Mitsubishi Innovative Valve timing Electronic Control system) [1] is the brand name of a variable valve timing (VVT) engine technology developed by Mitsubishi Motors. MIVEC, as with other similar systems, varies the timing of the intake and exhaust camshafts which increases the power and torque output over a broad ...
The Mitsubishi 3A9 engine is a range of all-alloy three cylinder engines from Mitsubishi Motors that were jointly developed with 4A9 engine family. They were introduced in the 2003 version of their Mitsubishi Colt supermini , and built by DaimlerChrysler -owned MDC Power in Germany (previously a joint venture).
The 4A9 is Mitsubishi's first four-cylinder engine family to adopt a high-pressure die-cast aluminum block. [1] [3] All engines developed within this family have aluminum cylinder block and head, four valves per cylinder, double overhead camshaft layouts, and MIVEC continuous variable valve timing (intake only).
All engines developed within this family have aluminium cylinder block and head, 4 valves per cylinder, double overhead camshaft layouts, and MIVEC continuous variable valve timing. All variations of 4B1 engine share the same engine block with a 96 mm bore pitch. The difference in displacement is achieved by variance in bore and stroke. [4]
The new 4J10 MIVEC engine features the use of a next-generation MIVEC system that continuously regulates intake valve lift, opening duration and timing. The new MIVEC system together with improved combustion stability and a reduction in piston friction provide an improvement in fuel economy without any loss in engine performance (output and ...
An engine requires large amounts of air when operating at high speeds. However, the intake valves may close before enough air has entered each combustion chamber, reducing performance. On the other hand, if the camshaft keeps the valves open for longer periods of time, as with a racing cam, problems start to occur at the lower engine speeds.

For the MIVEC engine, output was 273 PS (201 kW; 269 hp) at 6000 rpm and 304 N⋅m (224 lb⋅ft) at 4500 rpm. The SOHC 12-valve for the second generation of Pajero could produce up to 109 kW (148 PS; 146 hp) and 235 N⋅m (173 lb⋅ft), whereas the SOHC 24-valve could produce up to 133 kW (181 PS; 178 hp) and 255 N⋅m (188 lb⋅ft).
