yea its the TDC sensor. same as the ones on a d16a1. i have an 88 lude in front of my house. i bought it for 150 bones put a timing belt in it, and new head cause all the valves were bent (had a donor motor that i got for free cause it smoked, rings were bad) so im in it around 200 bones, including the car. the only cars ive ever owned were hondas, ive owned almost every make and model over the years, and the lude is the only automatic honda ive ever owned that smokes the tires when you mash from a stop light. gotta love torque!

vtec is only useful if you want to rev to 9k rpms and still pass emissions at cruise. Turbochargers are the drug every engine needs, an ample supply of steroids.
