Default help

I'll try and give enough relevant info hopefully...

The car is a 95 GSR (OBD1). It has a type r engine with a skunk2 valve train and crower stage 2 cams.

I seem to be having an issue with vtec engagement, I was running a GSR ECU with the engagement set at a stock 4500. You could hear the switchover but it was very 'tame' for the lack of a better word. I had a spare p28 ECU chipped with just a type r base map which got rid of my CEL and cured some drivability issues I was having, however now I cannot determine whether vtec is comming on at all. I'd figure with the more aggressive cams it should be pretty noticable as I had a 99 Si with a B16 with a CTR intake cam and the thing just friggen howled after it engaged.

Luckily last night I was able to do some testing with another integra, I swapped the vtec solenoids around (Just the top portion) and still no luck, we tried my ECU in his car and his vtec still engaged fine, tried his ecu in my car and still no dice. The guy that tuned it removed the pressure switch from the ECU as the type r engine doesn't have the plug for it (obd2 engines iirc dont have this)

I have eliminated any possible wiring issues by wiring pin 4 on bank a straight to the vtec solenoid, and I'm at a loss now

Any ideas?

Well if anyone that's not an idiot would like to share some suggestions as to why my Type R engine in my GSR is having vtec issues it would be appreciated, unlike this retard you may have to read more than one sentance.

Yes, I have an idea as well. 1) don't be a douchebag and 2) try posting in the hybrid forum as that's what your car basically is.

FWIW, your attitude has basically eliminated any help you might have gotten in this forum.

You're lucky you haven't seen a cat picture yet. There's a reason all the other threads that aren't ITR related (the actual car) are not active in this section?

Oh for the love of, than how about some specific information rather than "post in the correct section" Don't want me to be a dick? Give me the information needed to inquire correctly, instead of being sarcastic....and you wonder why I'm a 'douchebag'

Thanks
