Default Help with wiring P28 ecu to my Si??? Couple questions................

Ok I'm stupid when it comes to this stuff so please be patient with my dumb ***.Originally I was planning on swapping out my Civic to OBD1 from OBD0 well my plans have changed.I now have an 88 CRX Si and was wondering what I need to do to wire up my P28 ecu to the Si?? I have the jumper harness which clips my Si ecu plugs into my p28 but I'm lost from there.Any help would be appreciated.

you'll need to wire up from the VTEC solenoid and VTEC pressure switch to the ECU. You'll also need to either depin the plug going to your distributor and use an OBD1 grey plug or use a OBD0-OBD1 distributor adaptor. Also you can use the SI fuel injectors and keep the resistor box or just use the Z6's injectors and eliminate the resistor box.

Ok maybe this will let you better understand my dilemma.When I plug this harness into my CRX clips in the cabin and then connect it to my p28 am I good to go?? What else do I need to wire?? I have this type of harness in the pic only I don't have the firewall connector so I have like 10 wires that I don't know what to do with.Are these the wires used for the V-tec and O2 sensor maybe????

Yes, these wires are used to connect the vtec solenoid, vtec oil pressure sensor, 02 sensor, knock sensor (if you engine uses any), and some other choices that you might need or might not......

Does anybody know what the wires are for?? These are the colors of the wires:

1.Purple
2.White/Blue
3.Yellow
4.Blue/Black
5.Black
6.Orange/Blue
7.Red/Green
8.Green/Black

So 9 wires total can anyone give me a heads up on what these get hooked up too?? It would save me a ton of time not to mention make me feel real cool that I wired them up my self!!! Thanks guys!!
