OK, I put a b18c1 in my 93' civic hatch, and everything went good.. EXCEPT for the fact that I'm running 15.4's.

Now, believe me, I can wheel my car. I DO still have my AC & power steering, and cruise control hooked up, and it's an SI, so it's heavier than a regular hatch, BUT we figured out that my secondary butterflies aren't hooked up.

Now, when we went to wire the IAB solenoid in to pin A17 on my P72 ECU, there was already a green wire ran from that pin. We figured out it was for a torque converter clutch lock-up solenoid, and I don't need that cuz my car is 5 spd. We hooked it up to that and it threw a check engine light and made my car run like sh*t.

So then, we hooked up a toggle switch to open the butterflies manually, and it actually made my car 3/10 of a second SLOWER!

Anybody experienced a problem with the IAB solenoid, and how do you correct it, without getting a new intake manifold?
