All you have to do is get the right ecu and a conversion harness.
It's very simple. No worries.
There wont be any issues with obd swapping the transmissions either.

You'll notice it's more fun to drive around town than it's vtec brothers because of it's cam profile. It's got more torque at lower rpms.
Good motor IMO, very capable for our needs.

Re: (MoE JdM)
Itr, b16, gsr
Will all be a big improvement over the ls tranny.
IMO, if you have the money, get an ITR tranny.
Slightly better gearing and oem lsd.
by the time you buy and install an LSD into a b16 you have a good condition ITR tranny.
if you don't like super short gears, get a gsr tranny.
