anyways the syptoms.. : Sometimes it wont even idle awkward ,

its not a constant idling.. when i come to a stoplight throw it in neutrual sometimes it will give it 3-5 revs ( very low rpm) nothing crazy like up to 2k.. or sometimes it will just keep idling up until i take off...

main causes of idle issues are:

- idle control valve
- air in the coolent system
- air leak


take a look at those and come back to us.

VTEC wiring isn't even as complicated as an aftermarket deck install. If all that was already mentioned was checked and your wiring meets step 29 and 30 in this DIY. It's possiblly a vacuum problem which YOU have to figure out or a mechanic. No one can source the problem via internet. Good luck.
