ooooh have fun!!!! first befor you think about wiring or any other problems you have to make very custom motor mounts. why dont you just go with the carbed ZC? that way you dont have to wory about mounts or carbed to MPFI, it just bolts right in.
WTB- Turbo Parts: Turbo, Wastegate, FMIC, BOV
FS- Crx and Integra parts, lots of stuff just ask.

Hello and welcome to RPR.
do some searching, I just posted some info on a similar swap last night, same stuff applies to you. Don't get me wrong I would love to do the whole swap for you, but I can't. Some people say don't do it because it's to hard. It IS too hard, but it also a lot of fun. Before I tell you almost everythiong you need to know anser me a few questions:
1. Is this your daily driver?
2. Do you have a garage or some other coverd work area?
3. Do you have or have acess to a welder?
4. Are you prepared for this swap to take several weeks or more?
5. Do you truly enjoy many many hours spent working on your car?
If you answer no to any of these EXCEPT for #1, pic a different swap.
If you answer yes to #1, pic a different swap.
Also please update your location. If someone is close to you they may no where you can get much needed parts or info.

are there any right ups for a B series motor? i saw the one in the 'FAQ' section, but it is kinda cluttered and hard to follow. id like to put a B18C into my 1984 non-Si CRX. i know it is alot of work and alot of money, but im up for it.
