wireing is going to suck to get done right. you have top rewire the IACV and wire for the knock sensor, vtec, and the 2nd o2 has to be behind the car to be emmitions compliant. you will need to get the exaust redone with the cat after the firewall and you will need an A/C mount from either a del sol VTEC or a 99+ civic with the DOHC, same with the rear t bracket. You will need shift linkages and axels and im. shaft and throttle cable.

well the ECU will throw a code without that second O2 and put it in "safe mode" IE no reving past 4000 RPM.
