Did you wire it up right? What ECU you running? And yes you have to reset the ecu.

Does the car start bogging before or after the CEL comes on for the knock sensor?

Nope, and if it did, that would be because of the Timing is being Retard by the ECU right? ...

Are you sure the CEL is for the knock sensor? I'm not sure about this, but if the knock sensor CEL comes up it should make the ECU throw the motor into limp mode.

just turn off your car and pull the 7.5amp "Back Up" fuse in the under hood fuse box. you'll need to reset your clock and radio stations. if you have an OEM deck with anti-theft, you'll need the code for it too.

You shouldnt worry about the ref until you get that code fixed, if you dont youll fail.

Are you sure your reading the right numbers?

Yeah code Code 23, am when im crusing at 80 MPH my tact is like at 4500 RPM.. everyone honda-tech has been telling me that is Normal, what is the code for a b18c1 tranny? it is a S80 right for 94-95 GSR.. and Y80 for 96 and above..because yeah, i keep thinking i have a b16 tranny, i hope the guy i bought the swap from didnt JIP me, i bought the swap from a recycling place (www.haprecycling.com) and my 1 month warranty for the tranny, head and block just expired, but everything else is 6months.. do u think its because im running on 14 inch rims and 195 tires?

I also found a thread in honda-tech that a b16 tranny is a S4C something, and i also read S4C is only made for the newer models of the Civic Si coupes and not integras, i just checked the tranny and foundthis bar code and it has S4C in the beginning, and i cant find anywhere else where it says Y80 but I also found this website http://tech.hybridgarage.com/tech/bseries.html and most of the trannys even the GSR tranny says its a S4C, can someone interpret this to me, because at night, my friend thinks its a b16 tranny and i couldnt really see, so yeah.. ill check in the morning for the word Y80 because i feel like i got JIPPED..and maybe thats why im Reving at 4500 RPM at 80 MPH
