2 - Learn to speak good english.

3 - This is coming from the Hispanic

Anyways, if you are going mini-me style and keeping it OBD-0 you will need some type of RPM activated relay to kick in the VTEC solenoid. You can chip the PM6 with Turboedit and run the 12 volt circuit of one of the outputs though. And if you go with the B16, there will be the same wires to be dealt with and some extras.

since everything has been so fortunate to be educated and look down on those who does not have the chance ill help you out.

You will need to do some wiring regardless of which way you go.

if you go with the z6 head its better that you buy a kit off http://www.rywire.com and convert your car to obd-1 so you can use a p28. Their kit also has all the wiring made up so its plug and play for you.

If you go with a b16a depending on which obd you go you will still have to do the same amount of wiring. Do not use a rpm activated switch for VTEC. Yes it turns on vtec but the computer is not sending it more fuel which is what is needed when you are in "VTEC".
