Default Del Sol vtec conversion

I heard that all del sols, vtec or not were prewired for vtec, is this true? or is it the same as converting any other nonvtec car and i gotta run some wires? tried searching but couldn't really get a clear answer. thanks

it's 50/50 here, car is a 94 del sol s if it makes a difference, so you're saying all i need is just the ecu and a vtec motor? it's an ls/vtec going in there.

all del sol models are pre-wired for vtec. the motor is an easy drop in. a p28 or p30 ecu is fine. the model is pre-wired for vtec BUT..... you have to wire in the vtec.

The main harness is there in the car, from the strut piller back to the motor is where you have to run your own wire.
