You wont have to do any wiring except for vtec and knock or iab. Just depends on the motor you get.

You will need a mount kit and shiftlinkage and axels for anything b series.

 

The best bang for the buk would be a mini-me swap:
A6 bottom end with the Y8 head. You'll make more hp/ tq than any stock
non-vtec B18

 

Get a JDM D15B VTEC

 

If you dont want a lot of hassle then just build on your current setup. Maybe some head work, a nice cam and bump the compression a little by either milling or using a thinner head gasket and some tuning. In fact search for some threads created by "b18c5-eh2" or "spade". They've created some pretty in-depth d-series threads. Like I said you got a good platform to work with, but if you dont see yourself being satisfied with what you have down the road(and no one ever is) then by all means shoot for something a little more intense.

thats the exact same motor.

and as far as DOHC ZC's go they are a dime a dozen to find a good one.

 

thanks for the help guys?? but im still want to kno wat is the easiest as in modifing the harnis wires??

 

my friend said if i put an b16a into my crx from an 91 integra.......it will be easy ......just have to buy the motor mounts and the rest plugs in???is this true? cuz if it is im doing it???

 

If you properly do a swap the easyiest and most simple wire jobs are ZC and OBD 0 B16.
And just so you know you suck cause you have the only year and model I cant find(88 silver Si)
I found a 89 silver Si but gave it to the women and boosted it.

 

sorry bout that but i bought the car like that!!! but its cool cuz im repainting it factory color

 

I'm sorry but I have a totally off the post question..... Looking at the pictures you posted, I noticed that your Coil wire is a little long.... What is it about 15 inches long? Aren't you worried about the resistance?

 

well theres basically nuttin i could do about it cuz thats how i bought it off my friend? but yeah i was thinkin why the wire was so long? u think it would do a difference if i shortened it?

 

Yea thats the point.
Path of least or shortest resistece.
