yeah, we saw the temp sensor on the back of the block but replaced it with an autometer sender for the 2 1/8" phantom temp gauge. that's why we used the thermostat housing temp sensor. plus the EX harness we were using was setup for it in this location.

no,double checked water temp, its pluged in right, ECU is a chipped p28 runnin a Vision program....im thinking that this program is ****** me...i had to advance the timing like 7 degrees to hold a good idle and decent throttle response....Im gonna check the water housing later and see if i can get the code to go away. Maybe then we will have more luch with VTEC...

As for VTEC, we no it works, the siliniod is fine..(we simply added a 12v power source and engaged it manually at about 6k by touching that wire to the ORange one...(VTEC pressure i thi8nk?) and it engaged, so the siliniod is good, but it wont engage on its own....????/ i dunno we need to paly with it some more.

thanks for the input guys, we are almost there.
