It's not worth it. Even if it did fit (probably not), you need the vtec solenoid and new ecu.

HyaBoosta will become famous soon enough

the d16 had a distributor and the d17 has ignition coils. it wouldn't work. but it would be sweet. I seen a 91 hatch civic with stock internals running a 12.9 boosted!

It that doesn't work....What about put a D16Y rockers and camshaft and rockers in there....Making it an ordinary SOHC VTEC....If that works, it will make the world completely different(I think).....
