ok so i have a problem with vtec on my b16 in my eg hatch
drives perfect w/no check engine light
i drive it and it pops vtec but quickly deactivates a second after
i don't knw what it could be.


-i wait for the car to warm up
-speedometer works
-have perfect oil level
-have 4 grounds on the motor
-throws no codes


its a b16a2 with ctr pistons and gsr cams thats about it

i just bought an oil pressure gauge and i'm planning on installing it tommorrow
but i can't find the specs on what the oil pressure is suppossed to be at


if anyone has any info for me or want to offer any help please feel free to.


thanks tr

Does it throw a check engine light for a second when it deactivates?

Yea, Check the oil pressure to see if your getting enough for it to open

And get a damn tune.

i already tried different ecus, oil pressure is good i bought a oil pressure gauge and its reads 20 psi at idle and 83 psi at vtec and it doesnt drop pressure. and no check engine light at all while i'm driving
