ok what i got from the site is that you shouldnt go back in obd's. both motors i was looking at where obd0 and my car is a obd1. so it will be harder to wire. can a single cam v-tec motor push 300+ hp. when the come stock with 125?

with lots of work, you could probably build the del sol motor and turbo it and have that to the crank, but thats a lot of money. Just put a b16 in it, and see how you like it n/a. then think about turbos. But if you want 300+ the the wheels, you'll probably have to build the bottom end.

does it really make it that much harder if they are different obd's? is there anyone out there that knows how to wire motors? if i have the stock ecu that the motor came from would that take care of my obd problem but to make this a better question can someone explain what a obd is and whats the differences in them?
