Default 92 Si/4WS and the impossible CEL thingy

I cannot seem to find the CEL thingy for Prelude and it's driving me crazy... I just removed the glovebox and almost deployed the airbag. XD soooo...... before I hurt myself or worse does anyone know where I can find this thinger? If I can't find it I'm gonna rewire the whole damn dash. XD

alright yesterday I had a little help, and I found out that when you rev this new engine up to about 4-5k rpm, that not all of the exhaust is going out the pipe.... but more or less falling straight to the ground.... and going back up under the hood and getting sucked back in through the cold air intake. I believe I found the cause of my EGR problem.... does anyone know how to fix it? I'm not sure exactly were it's coming from, I'm too prissy to actually get on the ground and look. XD

yeah, but that costs money.... money that I don't have... I just spent $5000 on getting the engine replaced, the engine is still covered by the warranty. would this be grounds to complain and get it fixed for free?

I like the way you think, WhiteNoiz. I'm going to call them right now and tell 'em what's what.
