it would be better if you searched for it..its not a complicated process..but it does involve a few items,before you can do the ls vtec swap.

u also need to tap the head to run the oil line for the vtec golden eagle has a kit u can buy. that would be the best bet to buy the kit. it has the oil line the sandwich in which goes between the oil filter and the fitting u need to tap the head with runs a bout 120.

The cheapest way to to rev it to or past 8000rpms, is p30 or pr3 pistons ( out of a b16a ) and get arp rodbolts for your stock Ls rods!! You will also probably need new oem rod bearings! ( low comp high revs is bad so the b16a pistons will bring comp up and the ARP rod bolts will make sure you don't spin a bearing)

reccommendations :

1. Get the Golden Eagle LS vtec conversion system,that comes with everything you need.

2.Get some Eagle forged Rods


3. get some forged pistons,for your turbo setup

4. get some arp rod bolts,and arp head studs

5. get a GSR timing belt,ITR water pump,and ITR oil pump

6.get an ecu,that will support Vtec (P72,P28,etc)

i could keep going on..but researching the rest of the way will be enough.
