Which ECU are you using? What chassis is the engine going into?

That will require a complete OBD1 conversion... You're going to need a decent amount of wiring more than just the VTEC solenoid. You'll need an OBD0 to OBD1 ECU adapter harness, 4 wire O2 sensor, some plug changes and additional wiring. But that is the best route to go when you compare it to using the PM6 or PM7 with a RPM switch or VTEC controller. Although those methods do work and are much easier.

what about if you went with a chipped obd0 b16 ecu? That way you wouldn't need to get the adapter harness and then maybe just get it chipped cause don't the b16's have knock sensors if not that then just get the p28 maps put on the ecu? Then you wouldn't have to wire it for the 4 wire o2 sensor and less wiring is always better? Just an idea?

Yeah I'm pretty sure it would work. but if you use the p28 ecu you'll just need the obd1 to obd0 harness adapter which are pretty cheap now.

Where i can find that?That means i can still use my obdo harness and put the adapter in the ecu (p28) and run a couple of wires for the vtec and all that **** to the ecu?Sorry for the stupid quetions.
