B18b into hatch
Yo I am about to buy my b18b of hmotorsonline. Its going into my 92 hatch dx. I wanted to know if I could expect any problems. Here are some that I am thinking of:
1. When I am wiring it in what do I do about my guages seeing is how they are dx will I need to do any modifying for it to register.
2. The exhaust will it need to be cut I am thinking that if might be just a few inches too long or so I heard.
These are two of things I think that I might run into problems with if someone could help me out, tell me if there is anything else that I need to look out for I would be really appreciative. Please respond a.s.a.p. cuz I am getting the motor soon. Thanks

Re: B18b into hatch (NightKids)
its all plug and play u don't mess with ur gauges
just plug in all the connectors in the bay and then ur new ecu in and it will be good to go. the exhaust just about fits but the bolt patters don't line up so yes u do have to get some work done

Re: (NightKids)
Since you have a 92 DX (prewired for VTEC) all you should have to do is wire up the secondary butterflies and knock sensor...
This is assuming you are getting an OBDI swap or an ODB2 motor with an OBDI ECU...
