What year car do you have?? Your are also going to need a b16a ecu on top of other things that I'm not sure of. I'm sure searching "b16a swap into dx" will pop something up.

Yeah a B16 OBD2a ECU will be needed. Us the Dx harness and wire Vtec. It is very easy 2 wires and a ground to the block. Here is a great site that I use for my wiring questions http://www.ff-squad.com/technet/. Or you can get 96-98 Ex harness and not need to wire Vtec. Your motor should come with a harness and ECU, get a B16 for a 96-98 SiRII that would be the best choice. If you do use a D series harness there is a few other things that may need to be changed so check out the link I gave you. Other than that the swap is a drop in affair for the most apart. You can use all the D16 rubber mounts and upper trans mount bracket as long as it is a MT.
