Default B16a swap into 91 hatch. What ecu and potential wiring problems can be expected?

I'm going to hopefully be swapping a B16a into my 91 hatch and was wondering what kind of problems I might run into? Also what ecu should I use? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

i dont think you gonna run into any trouble at all. probably just the wiring. just use the obd-0 ecu the one comes with the swap. one more thing dont forget to buy Hasports shift linkage and motor mounts. you are going to need them.

My car is neither. It's the cheapest base model you could buy. Just a plain old civic. Thanks for the responses.

if its a jdm motor...you'll hafta add wires for the second o2 sensor...v-tec solenoid , pressure switch and add wires for the extra injectors...plus get the injector resistor box. it very easy and straight foreward. tech.hybridgarage.com/tech/4gtech/index.html this should help you out.

good luck!!
