Default F22B Head swap for SOHC VTEC

Help
Is swapping the head of an F22B (non VTEC) for a SOHC VTEC head feasible. Do I need a new ECU, wiring harness. I can get a head for $NZ500.

Would this then be viable for turbo later?

What your smokin Rydaddy?

I have a SOHC Non VTEC F22B engine in my RHD Japanese 4WD Odyssey. There is also SOHC VTEC versions using the same F22B block. I was wondering what was involved with doing a head swap from a wiring and ECU perspective.

My other option is to swap the engine for an H22A DOHC VTEC. However I want to retain the existing 4WD Auto transmission.
