my friend is selling a d16z6 head and intake manifold along with everything i need for the swap for 75 dollars. oh by the way i have a 97 civic hb dx if it will work i will have the head ported and milled and also port the intake manifold is this a good idea?

I really wouldent bother, i would just turbo what you have, maby get a y8 manifold.

turbos are expensive and my friends dad owns a machine shop so the porting and milling is very cheap so at the most this swap will cost bout 225 with the vtec switch. but yes i have a turbo from my dead 91 eclipse its a 14b and i wanna put it on but i have not quite figured out what all i need just yet to get it on and running

youll have issues with the swap if yo dont use a VTEC computer or keep your dx manifold (which is restricted).

i ge the d16z6 inatke manifold as i said above and the ecu all i have to do is convert it to obd 1 wich i would rather not do i have emissions testing my car is a 97 will it pass with the obd1 system?

i just decided to do the whole swap i just got an entire swap from a 99 civic ex. Tranny complete engine and ecu. My friend sold it for 400 cuz he now has his gsr so im now legal and have the ecu so that i dont need the vtec switch to activate vtec now

Good move remember to use the Y7 harness and adapt it to work with the Y8 motor
