1990 Honda Civic DX Swap Idea's
Looking to do a swap. What would be a decent price and give me a noticeable power difference? I was told b18b would be pretty cheap and decent. Any other Idea's?
You have alot of choices..Depends how much money you want to spend and if you want vtec or not ,,and how much hp you want,,etc...
You will have to convert to mpfi no matter what motor you choose..Then if you choose a vtec motor you will have to add the wires for vtec..And if you choose you changeover to obd1 or obd2a/b then you will need a jumper harness for your application..
