the issue is still the same OBD1->OBD2 as the wiring is not a direct fit custom wiring harness is needed also the 91 lacks OBD2 sensors such as fuel tank pressure and EVAP system is diffrent this is not a simple swap unless you cut corners like use a OBD1 computer and have it chipped or a OBD1 prelude Vtec (H22) ECU.

physically you need the exact smae things you need when doing an h22 swap,a nd it will be generally the same.

infact, if you havent bought the engine yet i'd say buy an h22 instead.

to be unique is overrated. the h22 has more power, more potential, and is much cheaper.
