I was originally planning on swapping a B18C1 into my car, but when the opportunity arose to buy an H23A DOHC VTEC complete swap for $2,200 shipped, I jumped on it.

Anyways, it's almost exacly the same thing as swapping a H22A into the car, but the only reason that I chose the H23A was because of the great price...not to mention the fact that I wanted to have something that almost nobody else has.

b16aEGcivic, have you ever taken your car to the track or had it dynoed? The guy who is doing my engine swap just had a dyno installed in his shop, so I'm pretty anxious to see what my car can put down.
