Vtec Question Simple
I have searched but found nothing.
With any Vtec engines, If Vtec isnt holoked up (wiring) will the Redline Decrese because the Vtec is what pushes it to the correct red line????
Because i just swap a GSR and havent hooked up Vtec and my red line is at 6600..
If someone can comfirm what i think is right would be awesome
Thanks

Re: (toyomatt84)
If its not the fact that my Vtec is wired why else could my redline be at 6600....my swap is a 01 GSR into a 97 EK with a OBD2a ECU

honestly, i'd not worry about where your redline is until the engine is wired up correctly and in good working order.
wire it up correctly then if it still gives you a legitimate problem, then i feel you should be concerned.

I understand that im just second guessing whats going on but the last thing i needed was
a vtec oil pressure senor since mine broke during the swap and i ordered that l2 nights
ago so that should be here by monday.

me and was messing some screws. Not saying someone screwed me because i can
deff tell a difference in how fast the RPM shoot up when im using my stock civic ecu
vs the p72 so idk but it says p72 on it bottom line so ill say it is one...... ill let you
guys know how everything is on Monday.

Re: (builthatch)
im sure it is a vtec ecu, i see its supposed to go into pin a08, i have the wire ran and about to take off the ecu cover. i hope there is a pin inside the clip i can use, if tehre is no pin how can i attach the wire? i guess i can go to the junk yard one day and just pull a clip out and cut the wires to get one pin clip lol, i dunno. do you think there should be a pin inside the harness clip?
