How do i install a vtec light?
 
Ya Ya.. i know.. rice.. but it feels like it is only going from 4800 rpm to 7000 rpm... it should be working all the way up to 8000 right? Well.. whats the safest and easiest way to do this?

find the vtec wire and put in a bosch 12v relay.

the vtec wire is a (+) power source (isn't it)...so why the need for the relay?

a realay for a vtec light. wtf.. i thought all u need is a 12v led light u can get one from a auto parts store.. or radio shack... and just hook the power wire from it to the vtec wire and blahdow!! light comes on when vtec does!!

i duno what kinda of light your using..
an led 12v would work fine but if its any kind of power drawing light.. it could drop the voltage on the vtec wire when it turns on..

plus what voltage is the vtec wire 12v? or is like some funky voltage..

VTEC is a 12V+ when on. And if you tap the wire (do not cut it) it will not affect the voltage.

dont cut the wire.. hmmmmmm what if u did a mini swap and the vtec doesnt even goto the ecu.. just to the v-afc or the rpm switch wichever way u went.. :) i got the vafc and i hooked the led 12v light to the wire with the afc..

That works:) But you just need to wrap the wire around the VTEC lead out of the ECU if you don’t have a VAFC.
