Default Installing b16 into si, wire harness question

Alright, heres the situation. I have a 92 integra with a b16 that im swapping into a crx i got not too long ago. I plan on running obd-1. My question is, would it make more sense to go with the full rywire kit from rywire.com for $190.00, or to use my existing harness from the integra (obd-1)? I figured since i have the harness why not? But im not sure if its a time consuming or difficult job to do. Let me know what you guys would do in a situation like this. Money is not an issue being that i just sold 1 of 3 cars that i own. Thanks in advance.

Abe

Rywire= plug and play Its not required to use obd1 injectors.... The only thing is that you have to extend the fan switch to the thermostat housing... or sent the harness to me and ill do it

The thing is I have obd-1 injectors. The CRX i bought didn't come with an engine, and the fuel rail harness didn't come with it as well i believe. Is this going to be a problem???

If you have obd1 inj, just solder all the wires that went to the inj box together... I can do it for you as well

My guy i bought the car from has the obd-0 fuel injector/harness for the si and hes gonna give it to me for free. I just dont want the headache of having to splice/solder anything. I ordered my rywire kit lastnite (11ish) and i overnighted it. Do you know when it should be here?

I got the kit in the mail today. That is the cleanest most simple kit i've ever seen. I love it. Now to pull the motor out! I was gonna do it today but i had work and on top of that it was cold. I'll prob do it tomorrow or sun. I'll let you guys know how it turns out.
