Default rsx conversion???

hi there
my friend told me about a civic rsx conversion. i looked it up and found a kit on line. i have a 96 civic hatch dx and i was just looking for some feed bake on this conversion. like how hard is it? is it worth it and are they a pain to get to line up?
thanks guys
