b17 swap...should i???????
heyy everyone kinda new to this site. my friend had an old school GSR, DA model and he took out the motor to put in his CRX..buutt now he has a b16a in his rex and wanted to sell the motor. I got the motor for 500$ 120k on the motor and runs strong. I have a 94' RS DC4 with a stock ls b18b and am thinking of doing the swap...some say i should and some say i shouldnt...should iiii???? :confusedo

lol yeah i think i am. the motor is sitting in my friends garage right now until i'm able to do the swap. All i need now is an ECU. Thinking of running it off a P28. any other suggestions on whats best??

you'll hate the lack of torque of the b16/b17 especially in a heavy integra. I know a few people who've put b16s in their integra's and they regretted it as soon as they drove it.
I'd do a lsvtec before putting a b16 in a teg. But don't expect a whole lot of power by slapping a stock b16 head on a stock LS bottom end.
And yes, use a p28, they're a pretty much universal ecu once chipped....meaning you can run pretty much any engine with it, i've run d-series (vtec or not), b-series (vtec or not), h-series and even the f-series (accords) off a p28. PM me if you need one.

you could sell the crank and rods out of the b17 on h-t for almost $500... everyone wants them to stroke their b16's.
i have a 93 GSR ecu that is already socketed and chipped for tuning on crome if you are interested. $150. pm me.
