Re: civic dx y7/y8 mini me swap help!!!
There are a ton of how-to sites out there on this exact topic. I'm not saying that we should blow you off, but there is a huge amount of knowledge in nicely organized, easy-to-read form floating around. Honda-Tech is a good place to start, and Hybrid.org is they're still around. Google "mini-me swap" and see what you can find. Then come back and ask specific questions, so we can focus our help better without taking the shotgun approach.

Dpfi-Mpfi write up (best one imo)
Pretty good Mini me write up

Even though its a single cam, dont waste your time doing the mini me unless you get an si transmission or ZC trans and get it tuned. I had a tuned mini me, put out pretty good power for being what it was. Ran like ass un-tuned. It's pretty much like an LS VTEC, but far less power.
