That was for use with the s200. You can use the OEM clutch switch from the cruise control, but it does not have an adjustable engagement point. You may find that a custom mounted micro switch works much better.

any part number or will any microswitch work? i was debating on hooking this up to help keep my boost between gears. how effective would you say the cruise control switch is?

Using the Power steering input may allow the car to stall at low RPM when turning the steering wheel.

ok, so should i do the vtec pressure switch, or what one would be the best one to use? already used B21 for boost control and E22 for low/high boost. should i used B9? what happens if i use the service connector switch? does it make it so the emissions checking cant be hooked up or something?

VTEC pressure will be fine to use.

ok, what was the wire for, i know the E22 brake switch raised the idle slightly when the brakes were pressed.

could i buy the same switch used for the S200? or should i get a microswitch with a metal arm and mount it so the clutch hits it at the engagement point

You will have to disable the vtec pressure in the vtec parameters. No it will not casue any problems.

ok thanks for the advice, wanted to make sure.

any advice on mounting a micro switch? was trying to think of how to mount it so it can activate at the engagement point but let the pedal keep going to the floor. probably near the top of the clutch pedal?
