You won't need to do any additional wiring after you do it the first time. It's plug and play if the dizzy goes out on you after that.

Correct me if I'm wrong but there is wiring to do. The ZC distributor will plug right in but the teg one will not. The Teg distributor uses an internal TDC sensor (or cylinder position sensor I forget). Either way you have to pop out the wires to these and wire them to the sensor which is found on the end of the exhaust cam (closest cam to the front of the car).

When all else fails with distributor wiring just go color to color. I think Dmoore's website has a pin out for that distributor.

correct - 88-89 integra is same as DOHC ZC - TDC sensor is internal on both - the CPS (Cylinder Position Sensor) is external, on the end of the exhaust camshaft

Yes, there is wiring that needs to be done with the ZC, the dizzy plugs ARE NOT plug and play....go here http://www.geocities.com/civiczc/zcwire.html
