The ZC engine and ECU are MPFI, but your car is stock wired as DPFI.
you will need to do the conversion... not really hard at all.

It's 2009. People have put V8's in civics. I'm pretty sure there is an automatic b series.

As for the original poster. Just google MPFI civic conversion. It's the easiest and best thing you can do to your car. Good luck.

see above^ mpfi uses 4 injectors, all the same size. dpfi only utilizes 2. one main injector, and a 2nd auxilliary injector.
