Default VTEC Question.

My friend is running a D15B and he has that old skool mani with the 2 injectors. So he can't use a vtec ecu because he does not wanna convert. Is there a way to wire up the vtec to a button? Just a thought.

ghetto but yes it's possable, VTEC is simply a 12volt signal. Pick up a radio shack NO push button. (NO stands for normally open)
wire one side of the button up to ignition and the other to the VTEC solinoid.

Then be sure to shoot a video of him pressing the button, while steering and shifting at the same time.

wow you guys.....or you can get one of those cheapo shift lights, except wire the shift light up to the VTEC solonoid...that way when you hit the RPM you have it set at, the shift light acts as a switch. no buttons, no shifting while pressin, no fourth pedal.
