Standard batteries emit gasses (I think hydrogen), bascialy it's bad for you and explosive. Battery reloaction kits come with usually 2 or 4 awg wire for your positive and ground as well as a battery box. If you choose to run a standard battery, then you need a battery box that has a vent to outside to protect you. Otherwise you can get like an Optima battery which is sealed and isn't harmful!

M-OE is the name for it.

like 80$ shipped, I may buy it if I get an exhaust.

And the plaid pattern is the best that you showed.

Edit:

Awh ebay seller who was selling them stopped

here is the cheapest I found for it.

@dipset
hmm. never thought of that, it's def an option now. I mean if I don't want to (or can't afford) a b series for the time being, that could be the best options, plus I can learn more about the engine and swaps for the future. thanks a ****load!

@nike
i agree with the plaid, i think i'll do that, i'll keep everyone updated with how i do it (even though i'll just be using a diy on here).. i'll pick some up in a couple weeks when i get back from vacation! and i love yer sig
p.s. i'll take your word on the muffler, ordering it as we speak

thats a pretty good deal for the full swap. if you do get that, your going to need a p28 (if im correct) and your going to need to wire in vtec if your car isnt a ex.

and let me know on how doing the headliner goes. i want to do mines, but not to sure on how to take off the trim pieces. i know the sunvisors and oh crap bar. but the trim pieces near the windshield look wierd to take off.
