So i plan on dropping a b18b into my hatch for the summer. So i was wondering if ill notice a big diffrence in power coming from the d15 going to the b18. I only have the block head and intake all bolted together so what other parts am i going to need to get the job done. how much will it run me for cost?

well it will probably cost you another 5-700 bucks for all the swap parts maybe more... what year civic? 92-95 you can use the mounts from an integra, 96-00 you have to use the b16 mounts from a si or aftermarket. youll need a header/ exhaust mani., wire harness, shift linkage,

is the car an auto or a stick that you have now?

the difference will be noticable, it wont be huge and your car wont be fast by any means but it will make it a little more fun to drive.

My H accord has good amount of power. Enough to do what you need to do. When I drove my winter beater civic. I constantly had to stay in 4th gear just to pick up speed when I'm going up a small little hill.

You'll love any b series motor.

You'll love any b series motor.

well you might have a love/hate relationship with the b16. you'll love it when its in vtec and hate it when its not. it will feel like your d15 when its not.

You'll definately feel a difference. I can pull B18B DA/DC2 with my Accord Sohc Vtec. Then i race a EG B18B swap and it pull me by fender or a car length, depends on my shifting points, But now i got something for that B18B(hehehe).
