Before you put the motor in, I would highly suggest that you change at least the timing belt, water pump, thermostat, and clutch assembly(if you weren't already planning on it). As far as upgrades, you can start with the usual I/H/E, and maybe an adjustable FPR. I wouldn't rev it beyond the stock redline, it would be useless. Unfortunately, you cannot convert the motor into a VTEC equipped one. Good luck!

Don't plan on using any FI its very hard to do with the early teg engines. On a lighter note the rods out of that engine are very strong! They are a high reving engine 7 or so is what my freind shifts his 88 teg at. I'm not sure about making this vtec most likey not worth the money.

P.s. Please correct me if I'm wrong so this guy gets the right information.
