My swap idea.

[NerveAgent]

I have a 96 civic coupe and i plan to do a swap with a JDM B18B(i believe its the integ ls/rs engine) I plan to do this swap because my car is slow, (HX) and i want some power for cheap. guesstimating it will be a little under a 1000 for the installation and the engine cost about 900. Would it be a GOOD idea to turbo it? and does it bolt right in? is this a good swap?! any comments/sugesstions are welcome. BTW thx

yes, that is a good swap. Turbo would be an excellent idea. does it bolt right in? was that question towards the turbo or motor? Turbo LS motor is an amazing machine, I say go for it.

Well i guess do both bolt right in. Plus do you know of the times ill probably get? 0-60 and 1/4mile? on my 96 Honda civic hx 5spd. with and without turbo. Im probably asking too much if anyone gots times please do tell. (BTW thx)

im not sure but w/o turbo ........ im guessing low 16s. with the turbo boosting about 12 ibs... prolly low 14s - high 13s.
