Default engine and turbo question

What kind of engine to swap in a civic 98 ex that would be best to have with a turbo kit?

Looking to keep the A/C.

B16a2 with a Greddy GSR kit. It is designed to keep a/c. The kit comes with a fat nasty 18G turbo.

+1 on this idea. i have a b16a2 without a turbo and i love it. i am going to be putting the turbo on this winter. greddy makes good kits.

I love yall guys [sm=hail.gif] This engine is aLOT cheaper then what i was looking at.

Question though, it says manufactured year 92-95. Will it still fit in a 98?

Sry if its a dumb question. Raised around old muscle cars. New to imports.

Manufactured year for this engine is a 92-95. Is that going to be a big problem when i put in a 98. or is the fit going to be good with no major mod-ing

the engine that he has stock is a d16y8 and he wants to know if the B16a2 [that was made for cars year 92-95] will fit into his car.

(to answer his questiong...you need new engine mounts for it to fit) Heres the kit he needs
