[B20Civic92]

i have a b20b block and a vtec head, i kno how to do everything on it except how to wire the vtec.
any help would be appriceated (i kno i didnt spell that right)
and if you could post pictures with that, that would be even better,
you can send it in a pm or whatever idc, i just need answers, thanks

you have to have a vtec computer first off. Then you have 3 wire that need to be run. One ground wire from the pressure switch under the vtec solenoid. then you have one power wire from the solenoid that goest to the ecu, and there is one power wire from the pressure switch that goes to the ecu. Depending on what ecu you have and what OBD system you will have to get a pinout of you ecu to know what connections to make on the ecu. Its a fairly easy job to wire vtec up to the computer how it should be done. just dont run Vtec on a toggle switch. Its not the best idea since you can burn up important parts of the vtec system. And remember vtec is fed by oil so make sure you have you oil feed done right as well

i have a p28 ecu, will that work?

[blue_lude_91]

p28 should work as long as its tuned to your setup i think, i remember seeing alot of people with b20s running a p28 ecu
might wanna check to be sure though

[ls-r teg]

run a wire from the solenoid to the dip stick

[94@ccordLX]

p28 shohc vtec civic ecu can be chipped to run any b series vtec engine so yes it will work as long as its been chipped

[B20Civic92]

ok well is there a certain type of chip (like name brand) that i should get??
and what the hell is that guy talkin about, (run a wire to the dip stick) wtf is that??

scotty

and what the hell is that guy talkin about, (run a wire to the dip stick) wtf is that??im guessing that was his form of a joke.

^^^^^
she is a goddess!

just make sure you use good wires not speakerwire or some shit!

[MugenCrx]

USE YOUR DIPSTICK JIMMY LMAO!!!! VTEC FTL.....

[94@ccordLX]

you will have to find the ecu pinout for vtec for the p28. if i remember right its pins A4 and D6. dont quote me on that tho.

Quick way...

Run your horn power wire to the green wire from the vtec solenoid, when you want VTEC, press the horn.


You could also run this power wire to a PA w/a recording that announces, "I'M GAY, I'M GAY, I'M GAY, I'M GAY, I'M GAY..."
