Some questions
After having my ls crx hit the other day while I was sleeping, I decided I might as well start looking for another one because their going to consider it totaled. I bought a crx with gsr swap. It was previously turboed so it has a walbro fuel pump, hondata ecu, and 310 injectors, so its running really rich. Would I be better off going to get it tuned, or getting all those stock parts so it runs stockish, or would that not solve the problem?
Also, it needs the vtec wired up, what would that entail, just wiring it into the harness and to the ecu? I'm a real novice when it comes to wiring, so am I looking at something to complex for me to handle.
Needs 02 sensor to, so what kinda work does that entail?
I realize your going to tell me to search but I'm looking for more specific answers.

you can find specific answers searching, but....
http://www.rywire.com for your wiring. yes you pay, but it will be done right. especially if wiring is not your strong point.
get it tuned. unless YOU want to go back to stock. you paid for the parts. you will have trouble selling your parts, or finding parts for you car. expect to get "low balled" for items, or jacked up prices for items. you have to be patient.

Will the car run "stock" even with those injectors and pump after a tune?
Also, its all converted over to odb1, I just need to wire the vtec in and get an o2 sensor setup, or would I be better off just getting the whole plug and play harness?

well since it is turbo'd it will not run stock. depends on how the tune is. it will only benefit the motor. if you are running rich on a turbo it usually mean it is still untuned and dumping fuel to protect the motor. tuning it will make the car run better, and more reliable if that is what you mean by run "stock"
running rich > running lean
best to call up rywire imho. I seen too many people screw up wiring(including myself) make a real headache to figure out what is wrong.
if you would do me a favor and stop by my fathers house in New Haven and tell him i said "hi"
I somewhat miss CT.

I think you might have not heard me right. The car was previously turboed, not anymore, so it is running really rich now that the turbo is off. Im just trying to get it to run fine again, so I guess I'll find a tuner.
I might just order the conversion harness or something because I need to wire up the vtec and o2 sensor and I dont know anything about that stuff. I'll have to take a look more closely at the wiring on the car and find out what to do from there. Wether it be just wiring that stuff in, or getting the old stock harness and the rywire conversion.
I still gotta pick up a o2 sensor.

my bad if it was turbo'd and the injector/fpr doesn't matter. just get it retuned.
or find a stock ecu meant for that motor. since it will be stock. Intake, headers, exhaust is still considered stock to me. not to some but to me at least.
