I am sure this has been covered numerous times but I have been away from the game for quite some time. I have a '99 Civic EX with a 99-00 Civic Si B16a2 swap. It has the Si bracket on it for A/C. What compressor do I need to buy for me to get A/c working again. I know I may have to have some...

This is all great information but i am not the one taking the motor apart or putting it back together. the speed shop is doing it i am just wondering what to tell them to do. i am not going for a ton of horsepower maybe about 250 hp. the DIY port and polish could help.
