Default b16a swap ?

i just got done bolting in a b16 in my buddies crx we took it out of his other crx. ok the prob is the one it came out of was a 91 mpfi and the one im putting it in is a dpfi 89. ok here is my prob the plug on the driver side fender that goes to the injectors are diff and the wire are not the same. can i take the plug from the 91 and wire the wires from the 89 into it and just add the wires to the other injectors. or what would be the easy fix? thanks

I could be wrong, but im pretty sure you have convert the car to MPFI before u swap in a b16- since your problem has to do with injectors, i could see how not having MPFI could make it pretty impossible to hook it up. Even if you did (which I dont think you can) do all the wire splicing, the car would be real slow.

You must convert your harness (the dx) to mpfi. You cant use the si/sir, or anything else!!
I can do it for you, its 175 shipped
