Re: will not rev past 4k engine/trans swap
ok, was confused since you said "was non-VTEC"
If you are using a VTEC ECU on a non-VTEC engine, the ECU will try to find the VTEC, but not there, thus it will go into limp mode (RPM restricted)
an auto ECU will try to find an auto trans, might trigger a CEL
