Default Skunk2 Vtec Solenoid?

Just want to know, out of everyone who has used or tried it, is it better, worse, or no difference what so ever in power and the way vtec kicks in?

Sorry dude its just a bling part. A solenoid is a solenoid. Honda solenoids probably have a .0000000000001% chance of going out to begin with. VTEC is either activated or not, it's just basically a "switch". You will neither gain nor lose power.

I'm interested in the review myself. I totally understand its just bling but mine is not working and I'm looking to get it working AND bling

Does it come with all the gaskets and hardware or do I need to purchase new from Acura/Honda?

it won't do anything to fix your problem, since it appears you have to transfer the pressure switch and actual solenoid over.

Yes I was just looking online and it comes with the hardware but not the internals or gaskets.... oh well if it aint broke don't fix it huh? I'm going to buy new gaskets and see if that fixes my issue....
