Default obd2 b18c1 into my obd1 92 Vx HELP

Well i jsut got done putting in my b18c1 in my 92 vx. The motor was taken from a 96 integra, right now i have the engine harness from the 96 teg on the motor, it hooks up fine to the 92 chassis harness except for one plug by the fuse box in the motor. The 96 teg ecu wont work, what do u guys sugjest i do. Get a 94-95 obd1 teg ecu? That should fit in but after i get that what do i do. Is there anything else on the motor that i have to convert to obd1? If anyone could give me some good advice on my swap it would help me out a shietload. I gotta get this thing runnin soon. Thanks

Just get a chipped P28 ecu and it is 100% plug and play. When you say that you have an extra plug buy the fuse box are you refering to the 3 big plug by your passenger side shock tower? If so do not worry about it I am using the same harness and I had an extra plug there as well Hope that helps

well i just bought the jumpers for the obd1 to 96-98 obd2 to make my 96 ecu work, so now what i am assuming it is still plug and play. i am sure there are a few other wires that i have to run correct? thanks for your help.

I have basically the exact setup you have: 92 VX with 99 B18C1. Obviously you used the OBD2 GSR engine harness which is the easiest way. That way you can keep everything on the motor OBD2. You should get a 94-95 OBD1 P72 ECU which will plug into your cabin harness ECU plugs. Everything will be plug and play except you need to repin 1 wire for the O2 and add wires for the IAB and the knock sensor. Don't use a chipped P28 which one person suggested unless you use a single runner intake manifold (Skunk 2) or your performance will be mildly affected.
You are correct about 1 extra plug on the passenger side shock tower. The GSR harness will have 1 plug left unplugged and the chassis side of the VX will have 1 left unplugged. This does not affect anything and the plugs can be left there to lay dormant. If you need help with the wiring or anything let me know.
