@awellman4056 - It's a check engine light, it's called VTEC, and the D16Y8 is a SOCH VTEC motor. VTEC does engage, as you can see the engagement light I wired light up around 5.4k RPM.
sigh.. im a convert was a mustang guy but honda has taken over me check out my vid of my new honda civic hath eg6 d16z6 with turbo power steering ac cruise control gsr leather everthing tell me if im on the right path!
@xVxRayJohnathaNxVx could be a number of things, mine light stays on just due to the simple fact i took my catalytic converter for a full exaust system.
my check engine light is on in mine too ! i dont think there is anything wrong with it . a lot of older cars , after 100,000 miles the light will come on and wont turn off.
is that ur check engine light on if it is you know your v tech dosent engage if it is on idk what motor you have you might not have v tech

gotta have some type of a good car to put a supercharger on smh
Superchargers are better than turbos but u need a good engine to back it up so in this case you would of been better of with a turbo

About 40-45hp. Low boost, easy maintenance. Great kit for the D16Y8 at only $2000.

any way to up the boost later on? with a smaller pulley?

One company made a pulley kit years ago, but I could never find anywhere to purchase online.
