Default Some last minute questions....

I have a 99 LX, and wanted to install my Y8 IM and turbo this weekend, but looks like I need a little more help. I have a Y7, gonna put in a 14b. Let me start with the questions.
1) I want to use a Y8 IM. Originally I was told that I'd have to swap the Y8 TB with the Y7 TB. However after some reading, I read that if I use a OBD1 P06 ECU (Im gonna use Uberdata for fuel management), that I would need a 2 wire IAC. Thus I could keep the Y8 TB? Do I need to move that one pin on the ECU? I am using a OBD2-OBD1 conversion harness, where is this pin?

2) When running a OBD1 ECU, does it matter which O2 I use? Do I have to use the primary O2 from the exhaust manifold? I have a test pipe and I dont think the primary O2 would reach. Would I need to extend it,
or could I just use the O2 that was located on the cat?

3)When doing the coolant lines for the turbo, shoud I "T" both ends? I remember reading some erratic idle problems if I connected the TB coolant line directly to the turbo.

ok

1) the Y7 uses a 3 wire IACV and you need a 2 wire for the y8 and Po6 ECU. You will need toget a manual for a 96+ civic and take a look at the pin assignments as i do not know off hand what they were.

2) you need to use the O2 BEFORE the o2 to get the correct readings that the ECU wants.

3)T ing it wont give you much flow i would think, try and tie into it after the IACV and fast idle valve. before it goes into the t housing.
