Default GSR OBD2 swap in 1996 RS OBD2 ????

I have a quick question for all of you swap gurus out there.

I am thinking the reliability of a GSR might be better than cams and head work for the LS in my track toy. But I've researched and I can not get a difiniative answer if I need a different wiring harness with a knock sensor or if its just as simple as adding a few wires.

Is there a link to a wiring diagram or can someone splane diz to mee.

Thanx

It would be easier to get a GSR wiring harnes but cost less if you can wire the knock sensor and VTEC wires yourself! P72 would be a must have unless you are not driving on the road then you could use a chipped ECU

Is there a wiring diagram to show what wires go where? I dont see why I couldn't wire it if I saw the diagram.

Dont you still need to wire up the Vtec solenoid? If so its cheaper to wire it myself.

Hondata + installation $ 600

$ 20.00 (right) Wiring myself
$ 600.00 1.5 Track weekends
$ 620.00 working swap and days on track
