I am assuming you have a EG OBD1 civic according to your screen name correct? You will need to swap the Y8 dizzy plugs over to the OBD1 plug if they're different and if you are using the Y8 injectors you will need to swap out the plugs for the OBD2's to use its injectors or just use some injectors from an OBD1 vehicle. Also the alternator plug is different so you will need an OBD1 alternator or I have seen some people swap over the plug in portion from an OBD1 alternator to an OBD2 alternator. You will also need to relocate the Intake Air Temperature sensor to the intake arm because the Y8 manifold doesn't have a spot for it. I guess you could use the P28 ECU for the swap to run it.
