I finally got my tax return!! I'm looking to get a b18b this summer (don't try to talk me out of it my mind is made up ) I'm pretty comfortable with what I need to purchase for this swap, which is going into a 2000 CX. What I am unsure of is what exhaust will work with this system? Do I have to purchase the header and cat for the integra and exhaust for a CX? Please, help!! Thanks in advace for the response.

yup, you're right. you get the header and cat for the motor, and the exhaust for the cx. with a motor swap the exhaust tends to be sometimes too long or too short. i forgot which one.

Thanks. Can someone verify if the exhaust is too long or too short??

well, for sure the header for the motor, but i just used my stock cat and exhaust and it fit perfectly. here was setup : apexi ws, 2.5 carsound cat, dc jdm itr 4-1 header, b16a sir2. all in a 94 eg. fittment was perfect.

Yeah, but I can't use the header/cat from my original engine because on the CX/DX model the header and cat are attached. Do you like the 4-1 header?

Update!!

I just spoke to someone at Jspec Auto Sports. He quoted me $1749 for a complete b18b swap (ecu, axels, header, cat, etc. and the shift linkage is an extra $99) Also, they're JDM spec w/ 30,000-50,000 miles and 60 day block/head warranty. This sounds pretty decent to me... Has anyone bought an engine from them??

I did a search and everyone is saying DON'T PURCHASE ANYTHING FROM THEM!!! Does anyone have anything good to say about them?
