96 Ex vs. DX Accord
 
Allright I wanna know where the 15 hp extra the ex is getting???
Is it just from the ability to engage vtec or is their head tweaked a lil bit more and is their TB and IM different as well.
how much would it cost to just swap in a EX and wire in Vtec.

You mean is it worth it to swap in an EX engine? Not in a million years (unless your engine is busted).

You can't swap the EX head on the LX block feasibly.

i don't know about the vtec part but the head gaskets for the f22b1 and b2 are the same.

Okay but where is the ex engine getting the 15 more hp???? Is it all in the head or is it in the TB IM Headers exhaust etc..
Im just curious
