where can I get pinouts?
I only need one just to finish hooking up vtec. I checked a couple parts stores and the local junkyard but couldn't find any. Any ideas?

Re: where can I get pinouts?
you mean diagrams, or actual pinouts? And if you mean pinouts, are you talking about the female plugs, or the actual ECU pins, or what?
If you're talking about the little ECU plug ends, I'm very surprised you can't find any at a junkyard. I just cut off an entire OBD2 ECU plug with a tinsnips and threw it in my pocket when I needed to add a couple of pins. It doesn't have to be from a Civic, usually any same-OBD Honda will work. I think I got mine from an Accord. Now, the little pins are a pain get get *out* of the ECU plug, but it's doable with some patience.
Same with female plugs. I just find one from any Honda that's the same shape and snip it off. I like to keep a box of them in the garage.
No pick and pull junkyards by you at all? If you're just going to a 'we go get the part for you' junkyard, I suspect that they're either too lazy to walk to a car to snip a wire off, or unwilling to hack up a harness for one pin.

I need the actual ECU pins, any yea my local junkyard usually has them but when I went they said they just got rid of their last hondas so I guess it was just bad timing. I'm gonna try looking around a little more when I'm home this weekend but if not I'll just get some from apexi rsx (thanks man, I appreciate it) lol
