2.Also, I have to get a SI ECU correct? I cant just modify my LX one.
3.How long do you think it would take me to do this?
4.Also any special tools I would need besides the hoist and sockets, wrenches and other basic tools?
5.I got the Haynes repair manual that tells you step by step on how to take it out and put a new one in.
6. Ill use fourthgenhatch.com web site on how to wire the MPFI.
How long do you think it would take if I had some friends really help me and I worked on it alot.
7. ALso, its best to remove the hood of the engine correct?
8.Will I need a new SI injector box correct?
Any other tips would be appreciated.
Sorry for all the questions.
Thanks
