1988 Honda Civic DX with B20b, injector wiring.
I'm gonna break this down as clearly as possible.
I have a swap engine harness to put this engine (JDM B20b) in this chassis (EF DX). Engine has the OBD1 plugs and all the required OBD1 pieces on the engine. The engine harness plugs into the OBD0 shock tower plugs and then has some separate harness with bare wires running into the firewall. These wires going into the firewall have tags with ECU pin locations to splice/pin into. I connected all those wires from the engine to the required ECU pin locations.
I have a OBD0 to OBD1 jumper harness to plug the OBD1 ECU to the OBD0 wiring inside the car, the aforementioned loose wires were spliced into this jumper harness to make it easier for me to troubleshoot any problems. The jumper harness has a 10(?) wire sub-harness coming from it with wires for o2 sensor, knock, and VTEC. I am using the wires for o2 (running 4 wire OBD1 o2).
With this setup do I need to run a resistor box for the injectors? I am using 240cc OBD1 injectors, not OBD0. The car is a DX (DPFI) and usually when running the OBD0 injectors you would need a resistor box (like just swapping to MPFI). This injector thing is bugging me and I want to know if I am even going about it correctly.
Thanks guys.
EDIT
I forgot to mention, I have no idea who produced this engine harness or jumper. So yeah, just putting that out there, the stuff came with the car.

SERIOUSLY?! Holy **** guys, can NO ONE tell me whether or not I need a ****ing resistor box or not? I'm ****ing lost on this one, my engine is not getting fuel and I cannot figure it out.

if your conveting the injectors to obd1 and the dizzy, you dont need the injector resistor box...
