thats your best bet. From what has been said on honda tech, seems to work pretty well.

that bracket goes on the the hydro transmission. It hooks up to your stock cable clutch line but when pulled it utilizes the cylinder in the hydro transmission so you dont have to change out your entire clutch system.

there are some pictures here.

okay i figured it out let me no ppl if u find an error ima do a mpfi conversion to my original harness first , then run a obd to obd1 ecu harness adapter then run a vtec subharness to the obd1 adaptor mix n match plugs to my block n start it up

-mpfi conversion to obd0 harness
-run obd to obd1 ecu conversion harness
-run sub vtec to obd1 conversion harness
-connect p28 ecu
convert distributor from obd to obd1 n start it up
does ne one see ne errors or ne thing else i have to doo
n does any one have the layouts for obd to obd1 distributor
