Acuta? LOL! I thought it was Acura... I'm not making fun, I know it was most likely a typo. the R and the T are next to each other. LOL! It is funny, though. Any way, I could be wrong about this, but I think that you have a lot of work to do so you can fit this engine into an Integra. The V6 engine bay that's in the ti is already made to fit. You know? The Integra always had a 4 cylinder engine, so, it would require more work to fit the V6 into the Integra. Lack of space. You might want to do some measurements before you start to speed into this. The engine bays of both vehicles are different sizes. Some one with more Acura/Honda know how will explain better. Just wait, there are a great bunch of guys in this forum with vast knowledge and experience. I'm a Nissan/Toyota guy, my self.

well im a honda guy but as far as the swap im not to sure. you better get a lot of money because not only are you gonna have to spend like 10k on the motor your gonna have to rebuild it for the supercharger. its likely gonna be very very expensive

Not to mention the fact that the Integra will need the engine bay tubbed out to fit the V6. It would be interesting to see the project finished, though. I'll wait. (I've been doing a lot of that, lately.) LOL!

hate to add to the story but most motor swaps tend to drive you crazy trying to adapted all the wiring,trans,motor mount,cooling,exaust,engine sensors,ect.Work with what you got install a blower, Build a new motor to swap into your ride I suggest, would bring you the mast satisfaction.

It definately is a detailed project. If he has the time and money, who are we to tell him no, though. You know? ( that rhymes, lol!) He'll see how involved it will get. I've researched it a bit with some of my Honda fanatic friends of mine and they say that he will have to adapt the engine bay in the Integra to accept the V6 from the Acuta, excuse me, Acura. LOL! I'm stuck on "Acuta", I thought it was funny when the author posted it like that. LOL!

no it wont fit. i recommend putting an rsx-r motor in it if you want to spend your money. what are you looking to do with this car or how fast do you want to go? who ever said a motor swap was a pain they just dont know what they are doing no offence. i can have my motor in and out of my crx in 2 hours(no ac or power steering makes it easy) but even with my integra i had my ls to gsr done in 4hours after ac ps and wiring vtec in pm me if you need some help
