Your code is for the heater circiut on the O2. You need to install a 4 wire O2 sensor and wire it to the ECU. Or use the original ECU with a RPM trigger box for the VTEC.

all you need to do is get a 4 wire o2, and kae sure you have the wireing for it. Then you are good to go. Where in orlando are you at? I can meet up and help you out if needed.

The RPM selector is is not a good idea seeing that vtec is also activated via oil pressure and engine temp.

oil pressure sensors disactivates vtec only if pressure drops.

Thats what i meant. but if you are forceing it to activate and oil pressure drops then your screwed.

replace the o2 sensor with a 4 wire o2 from a obd1 civic, and just plug it into the harness, if u look in the harness it has the holes for the pins on the plug of the o2 sensor
