Default V-TEC Wiring on a 92 Shock tower B7 Harness

I have Y8 inside my Civic 92 LX SDN and i dont have a SI or EX Harness im using a B7. So therefore the V-tec wire is not a plug and play... How many wires need to get bypassed to the shock towers for my VTEC(my vtec is wired all the way to the shock tower ...of course) but do i strip JUST the v-tec wire from the shock tower and use a wire to connect it to the solenoid? My Solenoid has a plug on it for the one wire but I dont have another adapting plug So they told me I just have to bypass the V-tec wire on the shock tower...Also Im running a P28 do I have do any rewiring in the bottom of my ECU? Or is all the wiring gonna be on the engine section?How many Wires does V-TEC consist of and where do they exactly go(such as a ground wire i heard for V-tec)All

1. The easiest thing would be to get an EX/SI wiring harness and it would be plug and play

2. If not you can run a wire from the VTEC solenoid to the shock tower harness. And then run a wire from the pressure switch to the shock tower harness and ground the other wire.

3. Or just buy a subharness and run it directly from the sensors to the ECU

i dont know about what the first guy was saying, but you need to run your vtec spool solenoid to the a4 pin on your ecu. Then run the black wire coming out of your oil pressure sensor to a ground and the blue/black (i think) to d6. Make sure you have the right ecu, cause i didn't and ecus make a big difference in your cars performance

He is saying that all 1992 civic chassis harnesses are pre-wired for Vtec. Use the pic he posted. All you have to do after you run the wires to the places it says in the pic is ground the black wire on teh vtec pressure switch plug.
