Re: Purge solenoid (javon972)
If your running a P08 you don't need it at all, if your running a P28 i'd highly recomend that you get one. I'm not sure if it will throw a CEL, but i've been told that the engine wont idle correctly without it, just go to a junkyard and get one off a D15B7 or something.

The reason i said you don't need one when running the P08 is because the P08 is the real ECU for the JDM D15B vtec, that engine never came with a purge solinoid, it must be added to the back of the intake manifold if you are using a P28 ECU. or you can use a D16Z6 manifold, both are identical with the exception of the purge solinoid.

correct
i believe it wont uphold to some emissions standards though. the p08 is a fairly rare ECU from what I understand, and the p28 will do just fine, if you are using a p08, hooking up a purge solenoid is pointless (p08 isn't looking for one).
I did the same swap, and ended up using my old IM from my z6. My d15b came with a newer IM, when I took my old IM off I saw that the gasket was brand new so i called nippon motors and they told me that these motors were previously carburated (sp).... weird...

Re: (obuhmyuh)
The earlier non vtec D15Bs came carburated, but all of the D15B vtecs were multiport fuel injection. heres a neat article on the D15B vtec, you've probably seen it before but i just thought i'd throw it in here anyway. http://asia.vtec.net/article/d15b/
