Could someone tell me where the VTEC Sylendoid is on a 97 EX? I want to install my own VTEC light but I looked yesterday and didn't see it right off. I wouldn't want to splice into the wrong thing. Thanks,

 

I could find out for you tomorrow if you could give me darn good reason why you would want such a thing??

 

I believe he already stated the reasoning for wanting to know where the wire was located.

 

Obvoiusly, Mr Resurfacing has nothing better to do then to type useless/Opinion messages tonight..My question to Magna77 is important,, Why would you need such a light?? As Honda Master Dealer tech,, Im still wondering why you would need such a light??

 

I was in a prelude once that had one and it was rather cool. I am going to be taking my dash apart anyway so I I figured what the heck, it won't cost much so why not install one at the same time. Plus someday I would like to change the computer chip, so it would be nice to actually see when the VTEC kicks in. Also was thinking it may help for gas mileage, I mean if you can control when it kicks in (by seeing the light come on) then when you are travelling, if you don't need the VTEC to come on then you can drive accordingly. :thinking: And if that doesn't work then you still have neat looking light in your dash that cost me almost nothing.

 

Good Answer Magna,, I can find all the info you need Monday,,look for my post then.

 

Did you happen to find out where it was located? Thanks,

 

located to the left upper corner of the valve cover

the cylinder looking thing.

 

Thanks, much appreciated. On another note though, I have to know, how the heck did you get that much horsepower out of a F22 motor. :bowdown:Please tell. I am very interested. Or if you don't want to give your secrets, can I email you? Thanks again,

 

i always recommend stand alone management, bigger injectors, and intank fuel pump. hondata aemEMS are good ones etc etc i have the hondata s200b.. management is the main thing in boosting a car that wasn't meant to be boosted.. everything else is secondary.

the right sized turbo... I have the t3/t04e ( i don't know the specs because it was never imprinted on the turbo) , free flowing exhaust (in my case i have the cutout open dp 2.5"), sufficient front mount intercooler (i have the one from drag.It should be good up to 350-400 hp or so..)

that's about it.. pretty basic. the main thing is fuel... you skim on fuel, you shouldn't boost at all.
