Default wiring vtec for a crx..

Iam having problems wiring the vtec to my ecu. My harness is cut up from the previous owner. Would it be better to just use another harness all toghter and make it alot cleaner? WHat other harness can I use that are already wired up for vtec. Its a 1st b16A engine in a 2nd gen crx.

I have the wires ran to the ecu but can't get the pins out of the ecu and wire it correctly. I have a soldering iron and gun, plenty of solder, wires, etc.. what ever you need. I dont have the correct ecu pins though. I have some from radio shack but I dont think these are fitting right.

Iam going to just send my ecu to jdmhondaparts and have them put a mugen chip. Then all I have to do is wire the VTS. Plus other goodies.

Kenji is local and he could do that program for you probably for less with a one day turnaround. He has a couple of my ecu's right now let me know if you want him to chip yours too.
