possibly a map sensor maybe. any cels? Jump the ecu anyways to see. I had a friends that his vtec wouldnt work, cel wasnt lit but i checked anyways and found the map code. so switched it and it was all good

Re: Help with Vtec and rev limiter
cmon guys....jumping right to the ecu?....oil makes sense thats the 1st thing to check...does the car get fully up to temp? if the temp guage doesnt reach normal operating temp vtec will not engage and rev limiter will b 6500. replace the thermostat and i bet all your problems are fixed

Re: Help with Vtec and rev limiter
b16 swaps suck. B16's are slow as ****. They have 160HP and a GARBAGE powerband. Basically no power until VTEC. Dont waste your money on that bullshit.
