my mechanic says I need a vtec controller and it will cost $300. What is a vtec controller and I was wondering if there was a place I could get it for cheaper?97 honda accord ex leaking engine oil and mechanic say I need a vtec controller to fix it???
The VTEC controller? Are you sure he didn't mean the VTEC solenoid? The VTEC Controller is just there to control at which RPM VTEC engages..you probably don't even have one..its aftermarket....seems kinda weird...check into that. Maybe you ought to ask at a shop that speciailizes in Honda's. And as far as buying the selenoid, ebay is a great place. Or find the part number and you can get it from this site:

check where you are leaking oil from. If it has anything to do with VTEC it will probably be the solenoid. I would think it is just the gaskets especially if they haven't been replaced in a while.
If this is a honda specialist it may be the solenoid. If it is not, he's probably full of s**t.
If your car is leaking oil it is more than likely a blown gasket or seal. You may want to get a second opinion before you let your mechanic work on your vehicle. It could mena the difference between spending hundreds or spending thousands.
sounds like bs that is an aftermarket tuner racing part
