If you have an STi or a 06+ WRX then YES you have AVCS. If you have a 2.0L WRX then NO you DONT.

all usdm STi's have AVCS...

Why do you want cams? there are better performance upgrades unless you are already running a big turbo built block with EM...

DUD. HOW SURE ARE U ?

If you have a 6 speed equipped STi drivetrain it has AVCS. If you have AVCS it is easy to identify by the 3 way oil line on the head going to the turbo and up to the front for the AVCS. You can run a non AVCS cam in an AVCS car but you will lose the AVCS capability. Remember that AVCS will not increase top end power at all. It is fully retarded once you are over 5000 RPM anyway but it will help with spool up and response a bit.
