No. The map sensor is the one on the top of the throttle body. Is this an si hatch? Is the wiring for your vtec correct?

So how is your vtec wired? Your stock harness doesn't have plugs for the vtec solenoid.

92 hatched came prewired for VTEC, so, it a matter of wiring from the solenoid to the cannon plug. Check the TPS and there is one more sensor that you need to swap over from the y8. I cant remember what its called but o the y8 its on the intake tube, and on the b7/z6 it was on the intake mani..

well my cabin harness came from 93 hatch dx because the old cabin harness used to be in 92 hatch few wires melted and messed up so i swap it from 93 hatch. so i should get different manifold or just change sensors?

I just looked it up. Its the IAT sensor. on EG's its on the mani, you have 2 options. drill a hole and JB weld the IAT to the y8 manifold (the way it says to do it on a swap guide I have) or just extend the wiring to the intake tube and install it there.

Which intake manifold are you using? I did the same swap but in an 95 ex coupe, i used the z6 intake manifold.
