what engine and from what year? obd0,1,2??

its just as hard as swapping a usdm motor if that is hard to you

If you get a USDM b16a2 swap, then you need to wire up the o2. Might need to run the vtec wires. You need a obd2b-obd2a harness adapter. You need cut and splice some of the harness plugs from the USDM b16a2 harness to your civic harness.

You can get a obd2 b16 from a 96-97 Civic from Japan. Then you will need to do everything I just listed, except the harness conversion (i think).

You dont hear anything about ppl getting 96-97 obd2 b16's from Japan. Your best bet is probably a USDM b16a2 (99-00Si)

I am sure there is more, I just can't think right now.

Any B series,well that still leaves a lot,but you want to stay in your OBD.B16B,B18C5,B18C1,B16A2,B18B.All cost between $2500-$4500,tack on another $500-$1000 to get it in and running.Are you just wanting to quick your car,or are you looking for street/strip killer?

UNless you have a 99-00 SI then any of the motors list will beef it up.Since the Si has a B16A2 then you'd need to step up to a B18C1/5.
