all you have to do is put the motor in and then do the mpfi swap. i just finished mine, i put a 90 si motor in my 88 dx. it was pretty easy to do and i've never worked on a honda before this. do a search for mpfi swap and you will get a few different web sites. and you can always pm me for some pointers

you gotta get a new ECU too, out of the Si, other than that, its pretty much exactly what he said.

well I got everything out of a junked crx with a good motor, as far as the wiring harness goes can I use the one out of the crx and just plug it all together or do I have to use the dx one out of the hatch and the si one and wire it togeter?
Thanks
