Default d16a6 into 91 ef

hey guys I have a 91 ef, dualpoint stock motor, I wanna put a d16a6 in, im unsure or what ecu to use, also can i reuse my old motor mounts? Will I need a resistor box? Is there someone that sells a complete harness plug and play? and would i benifit from swapping the d16 in as far as performance gains and last question is there anyone on here that has a full swap they are trying to sell.

Is there someone that sells a complete harness plug and play? Yes, rywire.
and would i benifit from swapping the d16 in as far as performance gains The A6 has more power, but youd benefit alot more from a vtec head plus the a6 block
and last question is there anyone on here that has a full swap they are trying to sell.
Here.

That swap with a vtec head and a short geared tranny has good potential. I'd say it would put you right in the same power range if not a bit more than a b18a1 swap (with bolt ons).

you can also pay someone to wire up your system as it may cost you less money. i did this to my dual point when i put in my d16y8 engine.

I see people out there spending money on the car to improve it … If you spend half that effort just working on your driving skills, making you and the car work together as a team, then you’ll go faster – period. To make the car go a second faster on the track takes a lot more energy and money than making yourself drive it one second faster.

Allot easier to use a obd1 intake manifold with obd1 sensors and injectors.. No resistor box needed..
