Thread: Summit vvl switch activation problem

I got wired up my Summit 830452, but i have problem i can hear solenoids clicking, but engine sounds still same. No kick, no noise changes.
I was trying low activation points like 2500-3500rpm and on idle. I read its hard to hear cams switching at that kind of rpm plus there is no enough oil pressure to switch cams.

Thanks for any help.

If I activate my cams at idle, my car sounds like it has s4's an it idles at 500rpm like its tryin to stall.. I'm curious.. Maybe try hookin them directly up an bypass the rpm switch... If no change pull the valve cover an check for sludge. An make me a diagram of the wiring

It works now. It need to plug both brown wires from each solenoid. That goes to Summit Switch. Window is set to low 4800rpm, high 8000rpm.

I would set the high one as high as possible so it doesn't shut the cams off at 8000

Yeah, no prob. We dont have even VE bin in Calum ECU. So we just did quick test.

good deal i just installed a ve in my b13 as well, i havent chosen my window switch yet tho,, kno any inexpensive ones??

seriously??????

cheapest switch would be a manual on off switch, flip on the vtec with your finger while driving lol... but seriously i'd get an msd 8969, very convenient to set, worth the money

X2 for the MSD8969 been using it for 4.5 years now

yea man im thainkin msd as well i tried the Summit 830452 and its allready went out however those folks over ther are real kool, there sending me a replacement allready, however i did notice it acctually inguages @ 500 before the set point,, i had it set @ 5000 and it came in @ 4500, lol now it comes in @ idle and idles like a top fuel dragster lol,, but boy it does boogie
