Re: BLUE VTEC Light KIT fits ALL Honda VTEC cars (rich)
ya i have done it in my car and it works fine, all it is, is a wire spliced into ur solenoid and goes to a light in ur gauge cluster. i took up one of the blank spaces in my gauge cluster and i am liking it. i wouldn't spend $20 on it tho, just make ur own 
there's a site on how to do it which is at jdmfan.com,
not sure exactly WHERE it is on the site, i'll get u the link if u want, but it's not too hard to find.

Only cars I would see the use of it in are cars such as the Civic HX the Insight and the Civic Hybrid so you know when VTEC isnt on so you know when your car is in lean burn and you can attempt to get the best gas milage. Other than that they are nothing more than show.

That is a pretty ghey mod. Even with a finely-tuned VTEC crossover where the torque surge is not pronounced, you always know when you're on the little cam or the big cam... no light required.

a proper cam crossover is defined at the point where both make the same power the crossover is not to be felt, but you will know when you are on the larger cam.....

if you know so little about your car that you need a stupid light to tell you when you hit high cam, not VTEC, then you my sir are another pitiful ricer, technically the light should stay on all the time
and to clarify things VTEC is the whole system, you do not hit "VTEC", your engine is always running VTEC, you are hitting high grind on the cam when the VTEC system tells the car to engage it
I am getting really tired of this ricer mentality misuse of the VTEC system like it is freaking nitrous, if you do not understand what Variable Valve timing is in the first place you should not be even talking about it

You dont know how much I know about VTEC obviously. You do not continually run VTEC unless you have iVTEC as VTEC is not continually adjustable cam timing. VTEC is the Activation of a second cam profile known as the "wild" cam.

So how again are you running VTEC all the time?????

agree motly wtih above post. VTEC is not a high cam, is not continually on, VTEC is a engagement of valves(previousy free rocking) at a high RPM to allow more intake and exhaust of gases froom cylinders, hince Variable valve Timing. If your going to act like you know what it is, at least get it right.

Wrong to a point. VTEC is not the engagement of valves. It is the engaging of valve rockers. The same valves are always in use, however their lift and duration is altered, by the now locked to gether valve rockers which will ride on the inner, larger cam lobe.

Re: BLUE VTEC Light KIT fits ALL Honda VTEC cars (Big James)
Exactly Pins are hydrolically locked to a rocker on a different Cam Profile. The Valves then follow the Wild Cam thus "activating" it. When the wild cam is not activated it is just dead rotational weight as is the rocker arm that follows it.
