those came with D15B7 (am I right?) which are non-vtec. You need the D16Z6 homey. Check your engine code.











Or is this just a joke?

if your engine goes from 90ft=lb tq to 85ft lb tq at 5k vtec is not working, if in high RPMs your engine is just normally slow, vtec is working

Run a positive and negative off it and see if you can feel it do anything. If it doesn't do anything then it's no good
