CVTC - stands for continuously variable timing control.

The ECU adjusts the engine's timing continuously to prevent detonation/pinging and optimize gas mileage. There is no crossover point, there is no 2nd cam profile, there is no extra power generated. These 2 things are COMPLETELY different, and really comparing them is like comparing one cars engine to another cars suspension
Nissan CVTC Nissan's VQ V-6 engines, which began life in the Maxima and are now found in the new Altima, the Infiniti G35, and the 350Z, feature a valvetrain with Continuous Variable Timing Control (CVTC). Similar to the VTC and VVT-i setups already discussed, CVTC is a cam-phasing system. A vane, housed within the cam-drive sprocket, rotates to advance or retard the intake camshaft's timing to maximize the engine's efficiency and power output based on engine and driving-condition information it gets from the engine's control monitor. Advancing the cam timing boosts low- to midrange torque, while retarding the timing improves high-rpm performance. Unlike the other technologies, though, CVTC doesn't have a corresponding system to alter the valves' lift or duration. So like the hot rod cam that is advanced or retarded during an engine buildup, CVTC doesn't change the character of the valve-opening event, just its timing. But unlike old-school hot rod cams, CVTC can move both ways, at will, to affect power throughout the rev range. Nissan developed Continuous Variable Timing Control (CVTC) to add cam phasing to its VQ family of V-6 engines. Look closely and you can see the camshaft controller just beneath the black engine cover and in front of the cam drive chain. If this motor doesn't look familiar to you, it will. This example of CVTC is aboard the 3.5L VQ35DE used in the 350Z.

CVTC installed on both the intake and exhaust The CVTC (continuously variable valve timing control) system sets the optimal opening and closing of the intake and exhaust valves according to the engine s speed. The hydraulic CVTC expands the valve angle on the hydraulic intake cam side, while an e-CVTC (electromagnetic CVTC) system is used on the exhaust side. Together, they boost fuel ef ciency at all engine speeds
