Default Oil pressure sensor and Vtec oil pressure sensor

How many ohms does a Vtec oil pressure sensor send when Vtec kicks in general. (i know vtec motors kick at different points)

And how many ohms would a oil pressure sensor read at about the same RPM?

I would like to know so i can do anti lag on a non vtec head with crome free

wtf? that sure is helpful

well here should be a easier questions

is the oil pressure in vtec solenoid same as the oil filter area?

ohms are completely different

you can disable vtec in crome if thats what you want. im really not sure what the hell your trying to do or ask.

because your post is so nonsensical that i don't even know how to help you. best help i can provide is google "ohm." they are a unit of measure of something not able to be sent through wires.

the vtec oil pressure switch and the switch on the block are switches. on or off, either open or close. hopefully you googled ohm and now realize it'll be 0 ohms or an open line, anything in between means it's broken.

and yes, for all intensive purposes the pressures should be about the same.

lol good luck

Sadly I know what your trying to accomplish,

For everyones benefit Ill explain:

What the OP wants to do is create an anti-lag setup using crome free. That can only be done effectively by applying the timing fix to the rom file and then going in and taking the low cam ignition tables and at the RPM you want to launch at (lets say 6500 RPM) you take the rows from 6k up to 8k and change them to -6 then add lets say 20% fuel to those same rows on the low cam fuel table. Then you just have to have vtec switch before that 6 k break point on the table so the car doesn't run like ****. When vtec switched it reads (obviously) off of the high cam maps which are un-altered. The OP wants to accomplish this effect on a non vtec car.

To do this on a NON vtec car (OP read here)

you must have a vtec ECU
you must wire the vtec pin (A4) to a vtec solenoid and then ground the solenoid somewhere (bolt it down to the chassis with bare metal)
you can either run a properly wired up VTP switch or CORRECTLY bypass the VTP switch (google)
you can NOT disable the VTP/VTS error in crome because it will read the high cam map all of the time above the set vtec RPM regarless of speed (i/e standstill)

Good Luck

Thank you!!! finally getting somewhere...

i was thinking the ecu knows how much pressure there is by the amount of ohms going to the ecu. maybe im wrong

so if i bypass the vtp would my ecu be running one map(high or low)?

thats what led me to my next question can i get an adapter so i can put my vtp sensor in my oil sandwich plate or is oil pressure completely different than where the vtec solenoid attaches to head?

why not just disable the vtec pressure switch in the map? you're making this more difficult.

why not just run a map switcher, run the wire to your ebrake handle or something?

Because he cant if you would read what I posted you would know why.

As for the map switch (moates 2timer) that could work but unless you have used one before you should know that the change is not immediate and usually when switching while driving causes an error

i've used VTP disable in crome a few times and it's always worked.

Its not that it doesnt work its that it also disables the VTS Criteria as I stated that would have it switch to the High Cam map even when at a standstill as long as the RPM rises above the Vtec Window which completely ruins the point of setting up the Anti Lag using the tables because it will bypass them.
