Hey guys! i've checked around the site a bit and there seems to be a lot of knowledgeable people, and i was hoping you might be able to give me some advice/tips/help with my swap i've got a 90 civic dx hatch with a d16z6 swap and a little mazda turbo pushing around 9psi with a chipped p28. i want to take out the stock single cam with a tiny turbo and throw in my fully built b18 w/ a .57 trim garrett turbo.. the engine & turbo setup are already fully put together i just need an ecu, axles, mounts, and some kind of fuel management (one of my friends just sold his car and is trying to sell me his Greddy E-manage Ultamite for only $200! so give me your take on that too please) i want you're guys' opinion on how i should go about doing this swap, what things i should add/change, what kind of numbers roughly might i be looking at once tuned, and just any opinions and comments in general about the setup. i'd appreciate any feedback you guys can give me.

also, because of the d16z6 swap, will the swap pretty much be the same as an eg swap? (eg. swap rear tranny mount & drivers side mount/wiring harnesses plug & play??) or will there need to be some sort of fabrication?

BUMP;; cmon guys really just ANY opinions / advice AT ALL would be helpful.. plus noone even answered the two real questions i had!! ( should i buy the Greddy emanage ultimate for $200, and will the swap be EXACTLY the same as an EG swap because there's already a d16z6 in there??) because i know normally B18 into EF swaps are a bit more complex. i have the materials but i still don't know EVERYTHING!! thats why im saying ANY advice/opinions would be VERY VERY appreciated. thanks H-T.
