+1 Cronic. This swap is a waste of time.
They (D16A9 motors) barely make over 100 HP. If you want to bolt in something similar to this engine that is very cheap, look for a D16A6 (the real one) out of a 88-91 Civic/CRX Si. Everything lines up. You will also need to do a DPFI to MPFI swap if you have a Standard or DX model.
Unless you want to go ZC DOHC. Which will bring you from 113hp (87-89 teg) to 130hp (ZC DOHC). They look a like, but are not.
