alright so heres the deal.

i lost vtec (i think the solenoid is not working) i want to replace it but honda wants 150 bucks for it. before i fork over the dough where else can i get something like this? are their any (reputable) aftermarket solenoids that i should consider because of price or performance?
or am i stuck? i figure i should buy a new one and i also figure there are no reliable(if any) aftermarket versions

just looking for some advice b/c i have only been into this stuff for 2.5 years and dont know everything.

thanks,
andrew
