Sup people...I have a question and a problem.

Question: I need VTEC...I have to have VTEC! I have a H23a1 and it's a really nice motor but.....I need more power. I'm thinkin bout doin a head swap and puttin a H22a head on my H23 block. I wanna know if I should do a head transplant or just do an all out motor swap? I'd like to know what are the pros and cons of each...thanx!

Problem: I just got a JDM digital climate control thing for my car but I can't install it. There are a whole mess of wires that came with the unit itself and other stuff that came with it (huge box that goes in under the dash, and a couple of hoses). I've been looking all over the internet for something that will help me connect the wires so I can atleast turn it on or something...but I haven't been able to find anything. I'd really appreciate any help and installation tips you guys can give me.....thanx!!!

I would go with the engine swap if i where you unless you wana put the head on yourself, you'll have a more reliable engine with the complete swap. Do the swap and get a new gear box and you'll be fast and furious. ;)

i think the h23's have a closed deck bottom end which makes them stronger for boost. I may be mistaken but if thats the case then just do the head swap..
