Default HypermilerX from Elkton, MD

Just purchased 1999 Honda Civic HX 5MT last Saturday (July 10,2010) as fuel-saver vehicle with original VETC-E engine. I love it!

Hi all!

Welcome to the forum! The civic looks clean and stock! Is it staying stock?

Everything but roof, spoiler and radio are stock.

I need to figure out a way to ensure that my VTEC-E is working properly. Is there any manual out there that I can use to verify (i.e. is VTEC-E ECU doing what it is supposed to do? Is the air intake 22:1 in leanburner mode? and so on)

Anyone got any idea on where I can find it? I've googled for it to no avail.

I plan to install MPGuino (with USB support) into my car, looking for nice-looking push-button that might match the existing design of Civic dashboard. Any ideas?
