Correct me if I'm wrong but wasn't the three stage for fuel economy?

You may need a different ecu to work it properly. Or swap with a z6/y8 head.

the three stage vtec d15b makes the same horsepower but with added fuel economy. It just runs like vtec-e under 2500 rpms then from 2500-4500 or so it runs like a normal 16v single cam with mild cam profiles, then from 4500 or so to redline it screams in wild cam profile vtec. I honestly think it is an amazing motor but that is just me.....honda innovation and engineering I have heard though that people have achieved 50+mpg with those motors in ef's.

As for the wiring I have no idea but i am sure you will need the ecu that came with that motor. Good Luck
