unless it's a track only car, don't you think your money would be better spent on getting a proper working speedometer instead of a vtec controller?

you might want to start a thread about the speedo issues, including the info on what swap you did and the specific problem you are having. ie. went from this transmission to this transmission and speed sensor gear does not match. personally, i won't know the answer, but i am sure it's an easy fix that someone here can set you up with..

1. It's controller not controler.

2. It's VSS not VVS.

3. Get your VSS issues fixed before you do anything else. Don't cheap out because "you need VTEC" and not fix something that is important in everyday driving.

4. Get some lessons on sentence structure, punctuation, and when to use paragraphs.

Uhm, no. You have other problems at hand that you need to clear before you buy a VTEC controller to "bypass" whatever it is you want to "bypass". We all answered you. If you don't like your answer, take it and shove it.

Ok if this is a track car then you should be useing a standalone EMS. But if you are going to use the Honda ECU then yes you need to get your VSS working to make VTEC work. Honda ECU's look for a speed signal and with out it you get no VTEC, sorry that is just how it works. You might me able to get a VTEC controller to bypass this but you should look into trying to get your VSS fixed first.....HTH

I dont think the speedo would effect vtec because i ran two different obd's in my car and i had no speedo but vtec worked fine.. I was using a obd2b motor and harness hooked up to a obd2a car. Only had two plugs hooked up to the ecu because on the 99-00 civics the third plug comes from the dash.. I dont know but my car ran fine without speedo. Just my giving my opinon..

You don't need a vtec controller if you don't know what you're doing. Vtec engages where it does because it's efficiency can be graphed as a sort of parabola, and it just so happens that at around 5500 rpms it peaks. Leave it alone.

Finally. I thought this thread was going to go 2 pages before someone answered his question.

His speedometer does have an effect, w/out it hooked up and working properly, VTEC crossover will not happen.

When I blew the fuse to my VSS Vtec would not engage. As soon as that was fixed it started working again, so that tells me that the speedometer and/or the VSS are somehow associated with Vtec.

Both of you need to read his post and not just skim threw it. He knows that hisvtec is not working because of his speedometer. His questions was if he got a vafc would it bypass the cel and engage VTEc. If you guys cant read and post something other then what everyone in here except me and rodrez. posted stay out and go post ***** on a different forum.

Ok done. Now you skim the post and look at the guy who asks if the speedometer has anything to do with the Vtec engaging. That was who I was answering. Take a chilly ***** pill ******.
