well all in all, the wire that comes out from underneath the solenoid isn't connecting to ANYTHING, it's just a wire and a little metal piece at the end which is supposed to go into a connector of some sort but there isn't anything around it it can reach to. Besides a bracket that looks like something is supposed to be going to it.

Also, could this cause my vtec to not be hitting hard enough? I dont know shit about these hondas..was a 5.0 guy now a 1.6

your probably not hitting vtec at all. are you talking about the single wire that is suppose to go to a gray plug? if i remember correctly there is a green plug and a gray one, and the gray is the single wire

oh it is hitting vtec, right at 5 grand it gets faster and way louder, but when i first test drove the car it would "crack" into vtec and now it doesnt.

i think the green wire is the oil pressure switch, if i recall doing my research right that is a JDM aftermarket switch, mine is all stock. But yes its that single little wire.
