i am swaping a d16y8 into my 92 civic dx
i am going to use a p28 ecu but was woundering if i need to wire in a knock sensor along with the two v-tec plugs.

 

bump for help

 

p28 wont have a knock sensor....just leave the knock sensor unhooked thats what I did.....obd1 alternater, intake, dizzy plugs, etc...

 

sweet thx dude

i am planning on useing my stock harness plus the vtec harness i got off ebay

any other sugestions

 

You are going to have to repin your distributor plug(s) to use the ob2 dizzy, the obd1 wont bolt up.....very simple just search for pinouts on here

 

Use a D15B7 distributor on ur Y8 trust me I did the swap to my 92 Civic LX. Then run ur OBD1 Harness ( YOU ARE gonna have some plugs not plugged) Car will run fine with no CEL if using P28

 

thx i was planning on useing my dizzy is my altanator and p/s going to bolt up to the engine also. i am planning on useing this swap to remove the a/c

 

your ps and altanator will bolt right up. your ac will to why don't you keep it? just wondering why... i don't have ac

 

i live in maine it gets to 100 Degrees like twice a year so there realy is no point for losing the 5hp and weight in my auto-x car.

also witch injectors should i use and if i have to switch are they going to fit properly.

 

bump for an answer i hope

 

i believe that the oem injectors will work with the y8.
so it's your auto-x car?
boost it

 

thats the plan once i get some money again this swap is costing me about 1k (motor,tran.chipped ecu)
