How are you using an OBD-2 P72 ECU in your EG Civic ??? It doesn't plug in directly... soooo.

There is no provision for a secondary O2 sensor in a '92-95 Civic, so you would have to CREATE a secondary O2 sensor plug and wiring. You would have to run a wire to the ECU for O2 signal and a second wire for the O2 heater circuit... and then get a 12v+ wire and a control ground wire to the plug for it to work.

I've got a conversion harness so the ecu can plug into the factory connectors

Do you know if the post cat sensor would be the same as the pre cat sensor?

OBD-1 applications only have one O2 sensor... it is installed somewhere in the exhaust system between the header flange and the cat... meaning it is a "Pre-Cat" sensor. OBD-2 applications have TWO O2 sensors... one before the cat and one mounted after the cat. You are asking about the one mounted after the cat... or "Post Cat". So, no they are not the same.
