//// 450 install on a obd2 motor... Can't find the dead plug. ////
I have done the obd1 install before but the dead plug was up in the drivers side corner. I now own a 99 si and there is no dead plug there. I have found this post https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=577749 ) but is seems like lot of work. So my question is: Is there a dead plug on my civic si and where is it. Also is there a link that I can't find that explains all of this. Wish it was as easy as it is on the obd1 cars.
Please help.

So I take out those four wires and put them into the resistor box plug. and then I take the extra wire from the resistor box and put that into the dead plug right.

Don't even bother finding it.. I found it, wired it up and found out that the wiring is different.. don't mess with that. Open up the fuel injector harness holder thing and cut all four power wires (Yellow/Black). Wire the four black wires on the resistor box to the Yellow/Black wires you just cut going to the injectors. Twist all of the four Yellow/Black wires coming from the power source together and to the red wire on the resistor box. Make sure you solder and properly heatshrink/e-tape all of your connections and make it clean.
