I had these saved in my notepad from Wreckedhatch:

"Use these sites.. they have great info!
Some is where to purchase stuff and get great deals and others are info on what you need and how to. Hasport.com is probably going to be one of the most beneficial sights for both purchases and information on how to and what is what... like when you make choice on trannies and axles and shift linkages and what not.

if u can find the honda tuning mag w/ erick aguilar on the cover (it came out this year), i recommend that as well. they do the dpfi to mpfi swap and also go into detail about wiring vtec to your car.

I don't think they say anything about Dual to Multiport conversion though.

ok when i did my b18a mpfi swap i had to, keep in mind i did soem of these things to keep my dx harness as much intact as i could, i didnt really wanan **** with it
1) put 4 wires to each injector and run them to a resistor box
2) length the tps wires, also switching the outer 2 wires
3) i lengthed the 2 stock injector wires, and ran them to #1 and 3
4) ran 2 injector wires to #2 and 4 injectors, to the ecu, leaving a connector on the right side shock tower so i can disconnect them
5) lengthed the o2 sensor wire
6) added the 2 wires for the crank sensor, also putting them into the connector
7) lengthed a wire for a sensor, idk what sensor that is in the back of the engine
8) took the injector power wire out of the drivers side shock tower connector to power the resistor box
9) when wiring the ecu, i just took a pin from b2 so i could stick it in b12 or b10 i forget but there was a wire already in there for me in either b10 or b12, so i took the wires form b2 and put it into the one that didnt have the pin in it

then u gotta add the 4 wires for vtec

im i think thats it, thats what i can remeber for now
