Just get rid of that narrow band gauge. It will not help you and it's not going to be accurate. Hell its like adding another stock boost gauge.

 

[Brutal_r3drum]

yeah i know i just cant afford a wide band.... and i dont like the look of a missing gauge on my piller... im going to just hook this one up for the time being and get a new o2 sensor with the wide band

Ok. You can do that for now.

 

[PIMking]

okay, Well it's not going to tell you much. but you have to hook it up to the ECU o2 sensor wire.

 

[Brutal_r3drum]

i know that i just dont know which wire that is?

this is the same for a 90 right i know they changed a lot from 90 to 91

From: Georgia DSM - View Single Post - 1G ECU PINOUTS (color coded)

The only difference between the 1990 Turbo and the 91-94 Turbo ECU pin outs is pin 6 and 14. You can just swap these two pins.
There are other differences besides the ECU however, i.e. the tach adapter, but this only to help identify the ECU wiring colors.

The diagram only deals with the Turbo ECU. The non-turbo 91-94 ECUs have four pins different... #3 #9 #57 and #105 are empty.

alright cool thanks everyone

I bought a narrowband too just to take up space, and I'm regretting it, waste of money.

It is REALLY easy to hook up on 1Gs though fortunately, no need to fool around with wires coming off the ECU. Get a male spade connector and attach it to the signal wire or whatever on the narrowband gauge. Look underneath the dash between the glovebox and the side of the car for a female connector, plug the male connector into it and that's your signal for the gauge. No tapping wires needed. It is a pain to find the connector however, mine was ziptied to a bundle of wires, so you might need to get upside down with a light to find it.

Do heed the advice of everyone else and get a wideband. After about 2 minutes you will lose any interest in the narrowband as it doesn't do anything useful except informing you that the o2 sensor is at operating temperature. Also it gets annoying to explain to passengers that it is just a dumb blinking light that doesn't do anything.

yeah i know that i just dont have the cash right now to get the wide band... and i have the narrow band one already(bought back when i had the civic)

Yes the narrowband O2 sensor is useless for anything but closed loop driving and will not be beneficial in full throttle tuning.
There is a wire in the passenger side kick panel, i believe its yellow and you can slide a spade connector in there and it will give feedback for your gauge

 

[PIMking]

fill it with an Oil pressure gauge or water temp gauge something more useful.

 

[Defiant]

fill it with something more useful.

Like a lens cap.

 

[Brutal_r3drum]

like i said i dont have the money for any other gauges and i already have the narrow band gauge

 

[Richrx_tsi]

sell the gauge and buy a different one. They are just annoying, all that it is is a light show. Trust me you will get annoyed of it in a weed or so

 

[Brutal_r3drum]

i had it in my civic for almost a year... i was more annoyed with the open space in the pod then the light show.... now i have a reason to fill the last spot with a BOOST gauge
