Default New here, but visited alot over the years

Hi, just bought another project car, 91 Wagon with an f20b, running an OBD1 Setup, chipped GSR Ecu. Needs dyno tuned but runs strong, even though way rich when on the vtec cams. I started driving Honda in 1998, first a 91 CRX siproject, then bought an 87 si, a 96 civic coupe when I got divorced, now own the civic, a 95 accord, and the 91 wagon. I have done suspension swaps, a dual port to tuned port conversion, several engine installs, an OBDO to OBD1 conversion...havent been to a shop for anything since I started playing with Honda.

Thanks . I already have a question. I had switched my map sensor on my CRX, from the firewall mounted unit, to the one on the intake manifold. If I remember correctly, is just cut the wires, wired up the plug and plugged in. I tried this yesterday( I still have some wire harness stuff around) but when I started the car, it ran very rich for a minute or 2, then died. I switched back, all is well. Just wondering if this is a fault with the MAP sensor?

Thanks, I see you live near Canton, my parents live on Lake Guilford. It always seems to be about 10 degrees cooler up there, right now that would be a good thing.
