Default d15 vtec question

Alright here's what i'm thinking. I have the del sol S with the plain d15b7 no vtec. I want to get the d15vtec that the si's came with. Could i just hook it up to my old harness and run vtec through an external tach?

si came with the d16z6 not a d15. if you just want you could swap the head and do a mini-me and just wire for vtec, or put in a whole new d16z6, or the JDM d15b, and wire for vtec

i heard from somebody that i could run vtec through the tach. instead of wiring to the ecu. i dunno thats what i heard. I thought the same thing when i heard it. I think he just means timing vtec for rpm through an external tach

wtf. dude do you know what vtec does?
1. you would need to wire the tach to ur ECU, why have a middle man there? just use the freakin ECU.

2. you cant just put VTEC on a USDM D15B7, you need to swap the head w/ a D16z6 or some other d16 vtec ready head
