Default more help needed with my 98 civic hatch

well my first post was about what engine i should drop into my 98 civic hatch but i got a fast amount of replies.. now if i went with a B16A 92-95 (SiR-II) complete change over would that be to much trouble? like would i have to buy mounts, wiring? also what would be some ways to up the HP on the engine? exhaust, headers etc?

Bseries engines are very popular to swap in, and aren't very difficult to do. B18B, B20B/Z, B18C, etc.

B16a man. But any non stock engine is gonna mean you have to go to a little bit of trouble.
Someone else will tell you another engine in a few minutes.

99Si is OBD2B, his car is OBD2. He'll have wiring problems. I would go with an OBD2 B18B, B20Z, or B18C.
