Default More of an opinion

Ive bought a jdm b16a, installed it with several problems i ran into along the way, but have solved them. Perhaps my biggest problem of all(alot of people say its easy) the wiring of the harness(which is the only problem i have from geting my 91dx running). I know that i need two new injector wires and four vtec wires true. I have no idea what the hell im doing with it. and now ive just found out that perhaps the easiest way it to use the old wiring harness since the one on the b16 is a mirror image, becuase it came out of a right hand drive vehicle. Now im completely clueless, dont know where to get wiring diagrams from or anything. So ive just decided to say forget it, and I looked on hasport.com and found for $250 i can send them my two wiring harnesses and they can put it together for the swap, My question is does anyone know of anywhere else that does it for cheaper? Thanks for all the help its greatly appreciated.

are you referring to a mpfi conversion to dpfi, dx i guess so. my buddy did his in a couple of hours. research the conversion do your homework and spend your 250 bucks on something performance wise. im no good with wiring either but in a nutshell the conversion really isnt all that hard. look it up

all the plugs on your dx harness will plug into the b16 except for the distributor and injectors. the b16 harness used for the plugs only pretty much, you will need the distributor plug, the colors should match up except for two wires, blue/green?and blue/yellow? correct me if i'm wrong, i'm just going off the top of my head right now. also you will need all the injector plugs and a resistor box, may have this item on the harness and may not, its a gray metal box with cooling fins on it, search it for a pix. then its time to do a dpfi to mpfi conversion. search that too for more info
