Default Accord F20B (JDM SIR)

Im thinking seriously about ordering this motor swap.
just a quick question for the Honda motor swap gurus.
this swap is OBD2 and my 94 Accord ex isn't. exactly what, if anyone knows, do I need to do to make the conversion work.
any true insight is appreciated.

maybe just the conversion harness for the ecu? I hear these are a pain to wire up. Any specific reason why you chose this motor over the h series?

In these pics you can see the new Intake Manifold. I like the manifold it sits real low so you cant even see it unless your practically right on top of the motor.
*I had to rip out the heater core though because It was in the way. I would rather ditch it for a cleaner look anyway, so its gone*

Still in consideration, but wanting to keep the accord an accord not a prelude.
the only H I was thinking about really is the H23A for the SIR Wagon.
the biggest issue is I am trying to keep it automatic for my girl.
