92 hatches are pre-wired for vtec up to the shock tower harness.

Here's the DIY list, click the Mini-Me link 4th down from the top.
There's detail in there on how to run the wiring for the vtec head :thumb:

The rest is plug & play for the most part.

you can use your b7 gear box but the z6 tranny is wayy better. the gear ratio is much shorter and provides much better acceleration.
