Default swap

which is easiest to do?? a std swap, with a b16 or a si ??? probably the si i suppose. i'm pretty sure the si would be easiest and i know everything to do but my question is can someone tell me about the fuel swapping. (injectos fuel pump etc...)what all would i have to do???

hmm I assume from your cryptic post you have an STD *its ok my girl gave me the clap once but thats another story....... No i'm kidding*
Ok ok back to topic you have STD model civic and your asking what is easier swap a SI D16 or b16a? well both you'll need to rig up the MPFI system those motors use *you can run DPI with the SI motor but it'll suck* but the b16 will take some more work a mount kit and wiring out the wazzoo but very worth while.

The easier and cheaper swap would be the SI motor swap i bet if your handy you can do it alone in a day

The b16 would be alot more power and more costly but its harder and if your not good with working on cars wiring etc i would sugest sending to a shop

It should about which motor is better i.e more horsepower. Either or you should take the time to learn how to wrench on your own car and figure out how to wire MPFI and other stuff. Its not that hard, unless ur lazy like my *** and dont feel like getting into to **** you dont want to deal w/. Then you should go for the easier swap, but give urself a challenge. Go B16 or do a sinlge cam but for sure bust the MPFI And after ur done u feel like your the **** and you can teach others
