ok, as a disclaimer, i'm no expert on d series motors. that being said, you need to get a vtec ecu, i believe a p28 would work, but as that is for a 1.6, it may cause some poor drivability conditions. check the wiring info at the top of this page for the wiring you need, all you should need to run is the vtec wire. i'm not sure if there are any modifications to the nonvtec d15 block that must be made, but im sure that could be found with a couple of searches in the archives. other than that, get to the wrenching, and good luck with your project.

Its not that hard to do. Search this site for mini-me conversion or check the faqs at the top of the page for more info.

You will need the VTEC head, VTEC SOHC Ecu or a chipped one, you will need to run the VTEC wires (3) as well. I believe you will have to remove a dowel in the head too in order to get correct oil flow. Its not that hard, just do your research first.

A simple search would've returned this to you. https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=554053 You're new, so we'll let it slide, but you'll find yourself better off if you search first and ask questions later.

make sure you remove the dowel in the block if you have a d15, just making sure you dont forget that so you dont have to take your head off again. but the links in the faq should do you good. good luck
