OK I have decided pretty much that the B16 is the engine for me. Its cheap and its got what I want.

My car is a 1991 Acura Integra LS(so you know what I am dealing with)

I have a few questions:

1. Should I go with the 88-91 Sir1 B16a1 which is 160hp/111ft. and doesnt require any wiring conversion(I dont think). Or should I go with the 92-93 Xsi which is 170hp/113.

The Xsi is an OBD1 engine which you probably already know. If I go with the Xsi what things will I need besides a conversion harness. Will the dizz and everything else that comes with a full swap fit in my car.

There isn't much difference in the price of the g1 and g2 b16s. Im just wondering which one is the best for me.

What will I need besides what is in that link?

Im not going to do the swap myself. I just need to know what I will need.

2. I am probably going to turbo the engine in the future. Is that a good setup. B16 + boost.

Nice that sounds alot like what I'm going to do to my car except maybe not to that extent.

Maybee its just me but I wouldn't pay $449 for 10 more hp and two more ft lbs of tourqe. That $$ could be spent on cams/tune up parts/ect instead.

Sticking w/OBD0 will only make you wire up vtec, i believe its two wires and your done.
