no i don't have a VTEC ecu. i have the stock dx ecu rewired for 4 injectors and i have the vtec hooked to a switch that activates at full throttle.

due you're doing it all wrong. first, you can't wire a 2 injector ECU to 4 injectors, you need to have a proper ecu.

i don;t know i had the motor installed at a shop. they do installs all day long. im sure there is a way to hook up 4 injectors. I dunno maybe i shud be replacing the ECU??? no that i have the vtec hooked up to a switch is it possible to get a ECU from a 90-91 civic si. would i be able to just plug it in??? or do i need to know how the guy at the shop has it wired right now before i do this??? thanks
