Which wires did you tap into? I'm betting that YEL/BLU from the VSS which connects to the wiring for the EGR valve, PGMFI main relay, alternator, etc. is grounding out somewhere. Time to check all those splices.....

yes the VSS is whats causing your spedo and vtec to stop working

why did you tap into one of the wires?
remove whatever you "tapped" into it and try another wire or a diffrent spot.
its shorting out because its eithre
1) wired wrong
2) has a bad connection
