By the way, if you're using a P06, vtec won't engage. It's not a vtec ECU. It's also not a OBD0 ECU, it's OBD1. It's actually the same as P28 ECU but without the vtec parts, so it can be converted if you can get the parts. I used to know where to get them, but I don't remember.
The PS9 is a auto tranny version of the Civ/CRX Si PM6 ECUs. I can convert PM6s to have a vtec output, but I don't know about the PS9 because I've never touched one before. Supposedly they're the same as the PM6s though.
I'm quick, I just got your PM.. lol
Lol
the questions about the ecus were for my friend..hes running a ps9 on his right now and neither him or I knew what a P06 was..
Im running a Pr3 obd-0 ecu on my b16 crx right now.. from the pinouts and schematics i had it looks like all the wires are wired up..so maybe my guage cluster is the problem? MY friends b16a EF hits vtec when its cold but i know its not good for it since the oil is thicker. But This Vtec thing in my crx is stumbling me. I'm running out of answers and solutions. I guess I'll just have to pay some one to re-wire...trouble shoot it for me
