when you have stock cams you are not suppose to mess with the vtec engagement.screwin with it will cause you to lose power and your car will run like crap,or vtec wont even hit.set the vtec contoller to the original rpm it is suppose to pop and see what happens.

the only thing i can think of is when you got a new selonoid..did you connect the wires correctly and did any wires fall out accidentally?
