B16a vtec help.
I have a 95 civic cx hatch and just put a b16a in it and need help with hooking up the vtec. It's a p30 ecu. Pictures and diagrams would really help.

Yeah where that bolt is you'll need to get a pressure switch from the junkyard, Honda or online somewhere. Any pressure switch 88-01 Honda or Acura will work.

Re: B16a vtec help.
k thanks. so that greenwire and red wire below the solenoid isnt the pressure switch I think it might be that because it's a b16a out of a 92 integra migh be wrong so confused got the wrong Haynes repair manual

Re: B16a vtec help.
Also will the solenoid of a b16a2 go on the b16a because I know they have diffrent vtec engagement times but I don't know if that matters or not

Re: B16a vtec help.
I hate being such a noob!! at this lol but I cannot start my own thead yet so hopefully I will get some replies here I am swapping a b16a (obd0) into my 93 ex coupe. Im in no hurry to get it in b/c the z6 in it is running fine and I want to do it right. as far as ecu and wiring what kind of issues am I going to run into when it comes to dropping it in. I will be doing an all motor build on the b16 before swapping and any help with that would be greatly appreciated as well.

Re: B16a vtec help.
If you chip your stock ecu and run a Crome or other basemap you can eliminate the vtec pressure switch and knock sensor but you should still change over to a 4 wire o2 sensor
