88 dx to b16a swap, help??!

[rosman4u]

Hello all

I have an 88 civic DX, which so far i have got everything for the swap, here is my list of items:

b16a engine/tranny
88 Integra axles
ECU
Hasport Motor Mounts
Modified Shift Linkage

Now I am going to wire my dx harness and add more wires for the extra 2 injectors & to run the vtec soleniod. My question is do I have to use my map sensor or should I get one from a 95 del sol vtec even though I have the resistor box that came with the b16a? I've heard if i use my map sensor my engine will run rich. Also can I use the throttle cable from a 95 del sol DOHC vtec since mine will not work? (unless I modify it) Will my clutch cable work as well from the DX? If anyone can help me with this I will greatly appreciate it, or any sites for reference would work also.

You can keep your stock map sensor as i did mine. I dont know about running rich. Never heard of that. If you want to change ur throttle cable then u need to get one from a 90-93 integra. The clutch cable will fit fine but u have to cut off the rubber piece a lil so u have more thread.

yeah i was wondering the same thing with my dx, because mellowboy, u got an si so u got a mpfi map senosr, but dx dpfis might make it run different

You can use the dx map sensor. When we put the zc in the dx we used the existing map sensor.
