i bought a d15b motor and put it in. i am having a problem with how to wire up vtec because my car was non vtec before, so if anyone could help i would greatly appreciate it. also my car starts but when u rev it up it dies out as if it is not getting any fuel. thank you
 
but what d15b did you get, is it a obd2a motor and is it single vtec or 3 stage
 
d15b stock in EK?????????


why would you bother to swap in a d15b into an ek though?? when you can get a LS for about the same and be way faster with much more performance options and all around better outcome??

i just see a d15b being a complete waste of money...

d15b
single overhead cam
less then 130 hp
1.6l
3 stage vtec
imported from JDM

b18b
146 hp
double overhead cams
low compression perfect for turbo
optional ls/vtec swap
built strong
large displacement
LOTS of availability
LOTS of performance options
can get them locally
more.....

just dont see the reason why. he wouldnt even have to bother wiring up vtec unless he did the ls/vtec swap later.


Good luck with your swap though. there are alot of forums out there with write ups about SOHC vtec wire ups.

are you saying a d15b is better then a b18b??

in that case, i, and others for that matter, would probably end up saying your wrong

no,,what im saying is that you told me that there is no d15b vtec for the ek. when there is thats where you was wrong and i was right
 
count down to the 6th post, and you will see where i quoted you, before you edited it lol
 
first off. i was making a joke out of it, was trying to make the point of putting it in a EG as a replacement is all its good for. second off, i hit enter by accident when i was trying to clear out the post and retype up what was entered in RIGHT as you replied.

you took it way to serious, i didnt even know it posted cause when i hit enter instead of backspace i got a clear text box. hence why i didnt know it posted
 
but what ever, MR HONDA GOD... freak out like you own the forums lol.
just saying you was wrong, so next time befor you start saying that i am double check yourself,.
 
where did i say YOU were wrong? please qoute me where i listed your name and right by it said you were wrong?
