Default turbo install = engine codes!!!!

i finally converted over to the dark side( TURBO ) . its a 1993 civic / h22a. i have been driving it for about 2 days since the turbo install. i have not been to the dyno yet, but am making an appointment. i now have 3 engiine codes .
1
8
43
i am wanting to know if this is because i have the 550cc injectors in and haven't had it tunned yet, or if it is something i need to work on before going to the dyno? and if so why would i have a TDC code?

yes i know how to check codes, and i know what the codes are, what i am asking is if these codes could be caused by me putting the 550cc injectors in with no tuning yet. if the car is running rich would these codes be something you would exspect.
i am not boosting the car until i get it tuned,so i am putting around. the only reason i went ahead and put the 550's in is because i wanted to make sure that the car wouldn't run lean.

Try to get those codes cleared up before paying for any dyno time... it would be nice to maximize the time you are paying for, rather than your computer going into safe mode and limiting ignition/power.

Let us know how the dyno session goes!

By the way, dont forget a nice tune up too, and maybe a set of extra plugs!

anyone else?
got any ideas.
i am just trying to see if the 550cc are the cause of this. because if they are, i know after its tuned it'll be good. but if not i need to fix it before i go to the dyno.

since you are throwing a 1 and a 43 this means that the O2 sensor probably was fouled becauase of running really rich. Get a new sensor and replace after the tune.

I have no idea about the code 8 though
