Default Shaggin' Wagon Engine Swap Help? Replacing a D15B2



Ok, I just bought a 90 Civic Wagon for $1000. It has an 88 D15B2 in it (92hp ) and auto trans. The engine is good, no smoke, no leaks, but NO POWER either! What can i swap into it? I'm looking for an drop-in swap that will be around 130hp or so. i don't really want to get into making mounts and harnesses and stuff.

Is the engine bay the same as all the CRXs and Civics from this generation? From what i've seen, they all look the same.

Any info or links are appreciated.

Did you ever figure out which engine to put into the civic wagon? I have a '91 that I need to do something to, but with a minimum of modded parts and fuss.

Check out Honda Tuning mag. They are presently working on one of these.
Yes the engine compartment is close enough that you can use the swap kits for the civic/crx
