* 1.6L B16A: This was the base engine, a naturally aspirated 4-cylinder producing 130 hp.
* 1.8L B18A1: This was the more powerful option, also a naturally aspirated 4-cylinder, producing 140 hp.
Engine Swaps:
While these are the original engines, you have quite a bit of flexibility when it comes to engine swaps:
* B-series engines: The Integra was built to accept various B-series engines, including the B18C1 (VTEC), B18C5 (VTEC), B18B1 (non-VTEC), and even the K-series engines (K20). You'll need to research compatibility and necessary modifications for each engine.
* H-series engines: You could also fit an H22 engine from a Honda Prelude, although this requires significant modifications, including custom mounts, wiring, and possibly an ECU swap.
Important Considerations:
* Compatibility: Not all engines will fit without modifications. You need to research compatibility and potential challenges.
* Modifications: Swapping engines requires a significant amount of work, including custom mounts, wiring, and possibly ECU changes.
* Legality: Ensure the engine swap meets your local emissions and registration requirements.
Before you swap an engine:
* Do your research: Thoroughly research the specific engine you want, its compatibility with the Integra, and the modifications required.
* Budget: Swaps can be expensive, considering parts, labor, and potential modifications.
* Professional help: Consider seeking help from a mechanic with experience in engine swaps to ensure the process is done correctly.
Remember, engine swaps can be a rewarding experience, but they require careful planning and execution.
