HELP: Issues wiht NON-CHIPPED P28 w/ harness installed into 00 Civic Si

I installed this into my Si. I am gonna chip it later this week.

Can I run this for now, just so I have a car, or do I have to have it chipped.

When I start the car, I have to hodl the gas down for the sucker to run. If I let off the gas it dies. I have searched all over with no help.

Any experts please reply ASAP. Thanks

isn't the p28 for obd1?? your 00 should be obd2, and I am under the impression that you couldn't chip it to run for the obd2. anyone able to shine alittle light??

i beleive that you can run the unchipped P28 but it will run like **** and your redline will be lower. I would run your stock P2T ecu if you still have it becuase it will run alot better until you get the P28 chipped.
