For the people that live in TX...
 
I have a crx dx with the d15b2 and i have the multi-point conversion, and Iam planning on doing the mini-me swap. Now i have a question:

1)Will my car have any trouble passing the smog inspections in TX with the multi-point conversion or the mini-me swap?

Thanks in advance
Drew

By what I've heard,as long as all your smog ---- is in tact there is no visual inspection.That meens that if you have an HMT kit(for example) and you can pass the ass sniffer your good to go.The inspector will only fail you if your hydro carbons are too high not for a swap or upgrades.

I live in Corinth by the way.Its in between Denton and Lewisville.

oh thanks for that info....and 1 more question-

What do you think will be easier and better for the money if i do a mini me swap, or if i go buy a jdm d15b vtec engine and swap it in??

depends on what shape your engine is in.If its smoking and ready to die then the money would be well spent on a new engine.Other wise I would just turbo the engine.I have a nice newa/c compatible long manifold bolted up to a t25 in my garage with your name on it ;)

Well my engine only has 70,000 original miles on it so i think i want to do the mini-me swap:). So what do you think about turboing my engine with the mini-me swap??
