hell yea, but what is wrong with the motor? 500 is about just enough to cover the head on the b16.

Are you talking about the entire swap or just installation?

2100 for the installed swap is a good price. I would go for it if you like the shop and don't want to do the work yourself.

Hehehe...funny you ask

dx/lx 92hp

ex/si 108 hp

hf/std 70+ hp

b16a 160 hp

Adding 52-90 hp to your stock car is a big difference. I went from running high 17's with the 92hp dx motor to running 14.5-14.8 with the b16a and i/e/clutch. Knocked almost 3 seconds off my 1/4 mile time plus it is a blast to drive on the street.

A 2/3 jump in HP? Ya, you'll notice.

As for the intake, you can use the intake intended for the car if you really want, but its kinda small for the B16.. 90-93 Integra apparently works perfect and is the right diameter. OR, you can relocate the battery and use an 99-00Si intake.


Do I even need to verify how much fun it is?

AEM has actually come out with a line of Hybrid Engine/Car intakes just for this sort of thing.
