JDM ITR engine swap

JDM ITR engine swap
I have a 99 Civic SI w/ a Jackson Racing Supercharger. I am thinking about pulling out the B16A2 engine and supercharger out, and would like to drop the B18C5 engine, tranny, and ECU in. I was wanting to get as much info on this as possible before I do this. So any comments, info, opinions, or general info I will need to do this will be greatly appreciated. I will get pics of car posted soon. Thanks in advace.

Re: JDM ITR engine swap (siboosted)
If I were you, I'd just upgrade my block.
Either get a GSR or B20 block. With a GSR, you'll basically have an ITR (basically).
With the B20 motor, you'll have way more torque than you do now.
I'd just get the GSR block. Build the head a little bit (valve springs, retainers...junk like that)
Much cheaper. Maybe add an LSD too...
