Default car wont start after swap

the other day i swapped a b16 turbo into my 95 civic dx. unfortunatly we have two wires left unplugged. one of the the wires we believe if from my alarm and it kills the engine. the problem is i dont know where it plugs ( somewhere behind the distributer). pretty much when i try and crank the car it just turns over. no spark or anything. is this why?
the other wire if for one of my guages but im not to worried about that

so does anyone know where to plug this wire into? we believe its the only thing keeping the car from starting.

If there is no spark, could the alarm have a "anti-theft" and not allow the car to be started unless power is givin to it? What happend to me the other day my distributer went after I installed a turbo, so test your distributer. Find out where those wires go, spacificaly the alram.

What type of alarms is it? try to google it and im certian you will find something there

yes it does have anti theft and i am pretty sure that is what the wire is for. what i am basicly asking is where does it go. or if anyone has installed one where did they put wire.

prestige alarm if it matters

it was probably a cut off switch to the coil...thats what i did...put the positive end of the coil on a toggle switch...probably the same basic idea here
