Default got my b18c1 installed in my Cx

well for those of you that dont know i had a b18c1 powered 93 SI and recently bought a 93 cx i swapped the motor today and there is a huge differnece between the 2....i love it

the swap was easy it took about 4 hours to get the 1.5 out and the b18c1 in running

Things that went wrong:
broke the knock sensor so now i have a CEL(anybody got one)Doesn't this retard my timming?
ripped the passanger side inner CV boot(ill put a new boot on next week...i still have to transfer my suspension and brakes over to the CX)

anyway i just thought id let you guys know that those 200 some odd pound make a night a day difference

weight will kill acceleration. i took 4 people and luggage for 2 girls for a week in my hatch to the airport and it felt like total ***. it wasnt slow, say in comparison to my old 89 plymouth voyager, but it didnt want to move too quick. congrats on the new faster car too.
