Default ECU Code 8, Brand new dizzy..??

Well ive been driving around in my car for a while since my swap, i had a o2 sensor bad and a bad dizzy so I got both of those replaced. Now 2 days later im getting a CEL, and code #8. Alot of posts on here says to replace the dizzy but its a brand new dizzy, Ive only driven it back and forth around town so far, and it just started last night.
Could it just be the timing is a bit off? Or is the sesnro actually bad and I need a new dizzy?
When I turn off the car, and restart it, I dont get the code for a while, then it comes back on after a bit of driving..

Special order from honda. Took like 3 days.
I could get a new one but I dont see how the sensor is bad, could it possibly be just my timing?

Where is your timing set to? Obviously you need a timing light for this....
