Default honda civic engine swqp from D15B1 to a D15B2

so I posted here about a week ago and was asking what I should do for my honda engine. you guys told me to upgrade but since im still new to the honda engine game. I need to know what i would need if I swapped from my B1 to a B2 engine. should reuse my intake and exhaust manifolds and ECU or should I upgrade those too. I'm not looking for something to race just gotta be able to get me from one place to another and be able to handle around 1k miles a week give or take. If you guys can let me know what I need for the swap it would be helpful trying to put it together for under 800$ thanks again

Should cost next to nothing to get the full d15b2, people give those away. You should re use your manifolds to cut down costs and keep it simple. Pickup a pm5 ecu, the fuel maps are better, rated for 92hp instead of the 70hp the pm9 offers. Pm5 ecus should be really cheap, like less than 10$. You can re use all your motor mounts.

Yup. I've got a B2 on the shop floor and I'm wondering what the heck to do with it. It's all yours if you live near Vancouver. Needs a head gasket tho.

No you don't need to get a 5 speed trans, although its better. The wiring doesn't change.
