Ok guys im new to the forums and my car is kinda weak. I got pulled on by a b16a2 civic Si. And i want to do the swap. What do you guys think? Will it bolt right up. Thanks in advance all help will be appreciated...
 
It can be done but costs a shit load of money, you would be better off just selling your GS and buying a GST or just buying a turbo kit
*EDIT* opps hehe my bad on the 420a thing should have looked at the year :shhh: *EDIT*

it certainly can be put in your car easier than a 4g63 swap into a 420a 2g, but still not practical. JST2FST didnt look and see that you were talking about a 1g.

however... from 1g n/t tech guide

Turbo Engine Swap
This project is extremely time consuming, complex and expensive due to the amount of parts needed to perform the task. The parts alone can range upwards of $5000. The basic parts needed are: Engine, transmission, ECU, intercooler (and piping), fuel pump, complete exhaust system, and possibly a few more things not mentioned. Consider the cost of simply buying a factory turbocharged DSM before attempting this swap.
