No. The harness should have had everything for you to hook up that you will need. I dont know what kinda of harness this is...but all my harnesses require the stock harness and the modifications are in the adaptor.

I have a B16a2 in my 91 CRX w/ cable tranny. I just used a PW0 ecu, so it plugged right up. As far as the engine bay, i used the stock si harness and added the few extra wires. This setup works ok, but i also had to utilize a Vafc to raise the vtec crossover. Trust me, 4.4k crossover sucks ***-cheese on a second gen B16a. Its also hurting for a higher fuel cutoff. 8k on the pw0 just isnt cutting it. I think a chipped PW0 or PR3 is the cheapest way to go.
