18 be good ?? also can i take it out of the little plug .And before my vtec did't kick in so i think this was the prob but i am not sure ...

I believe Acura sells the connectors themselves. Your best solution is going to be to cut the wire, splice in a bit of extra, then put the new connector on.

i looked at some places can't seem to find it but is it ok if i just cut the connectors and just wire it Straight?

not really recommended just in case it ever has to come off to be worked on for whatever reason, but you could if you never in your life plan on taking that apart in case something breaks or needs to be replaced...and since no one can tell the future i'd say keep the connector. Plus saves you from screwing up somehow and possibly damaging the amazingly awesome feature of a vtec engine, what's a vtec engine without vtec lol a low compression LS engine basically (i know major differences in both but just saying from a general view)

 

[boridragon02]

atleast get a basic connector to attack it, idk what type of connection the vtec has, but i'm guessing a spade??

 

[TheGSRGuy]

Yes, probably a standard 0.250" spade connector.
