Default Finally got the Y8 in my DX to rev higher than 2000RPM, $20 PAYPAL to problem solver!

Hey all, heres a quick run down on the car.

-1999 DX Hatch
-1998 D16Y8
-5sp. Y7 TB
-2000 P2P ECU
-Stock harness
-H23 Knock sensor
(not sure if connected on harness)

I got the car fired up but it wouldn't rev past 2000. I assumed it was the TPS and MAP cables switched, but I couldn't switch them back because the cable was too short. I extended it and switched them, and the car was revving fine. You guys dont know how good it felt. I have both VTEC Solenoid and Oil pressure cables ran, but only VTEC solenoid connected. THAT IS THE ONLY PIN SWITCH I DID ON THE HARNESS. Do I need to repin anything for the Y8 IACV?

I took out for a test drive after not having a car for a month and when it would get to ~5000RPM, the car would not go any further and would lower. It ran fine pretty much, but that was the only problem.
Also, none of the hoses from the IACV are connected, but I heard they aren't necessary.



If you guys have anything you want me to add feel free to ask. Whoever solves my problem will get $20 Paypal'd to their account.
