can someone tell me (sorry for all the questions) if the cardiovascular benefit of having the raised heart rate in Bikram, is the same as raising your heart rate with say, gym work, running etc?

Absolutely.

I dunno "officially" because I don't have any studies to refer you to. All I know is that I went for a bike ride in March of this year after a winter of serious inactivity and it nearly killed me. I've done Bikram's 4x/week since late Feb of this year. Last week, I took the bike for a spin and did 30km in 90 minutes (hills, gravel, offroad) without ANY difficulty.
It kind of suprised me, cause I had the same question as you before I got on my bike last week. Now I'm a beliver in the cardiovascular benefits of Bikrams...
