Default B18C swap into My 96 Civic ex...

I need to know which wiring harness i use to hook into the ecu. I have been told to use my civic harness but SOme one else said that the harness from my civic won't work because of the NOC sensor. Sorry if this has already been posted I searched and found nothing.

teg harnesses terminate at the strut tower. you cant use them. you have an ex, so the only wire you have to add it the iab wire. granted you will have to lengthen some, and convert the ckf from a 3 wire to a 2, but if it is a jdm engine, you wont need to worry about that.

being you have an ex, you have a knock, a spool valve, a spool valve oil switch, a 2 wire iac. so you dont need to add any wires with the exception of the iab. if you have a jdm gsr you dont have to worry about the ckf. you just need to lengthen a few wires.
