    The one in my old SX8 City was fuel-injected. Not sure if there was ever a carbureted version.

    You'll probably have to swap out ECUs also if you're planning on changing fuel systems...the ECU controls fuelling and it's programmed into it (hence the old Honda acronym PGM-FI).

    By the way bawal ang text speak

    ang alam ko lang na may ph15 carb yung sa mga lumang civic (1991-1993). pero marami ding civic of this generation na naka ph15 efi na din (1993-1995 ESi).

    you can convert a carbed ph15 to efi but medyo mahal. the difference in fuel economy won't be that great too. parang ganun din, tipid lang ng bahagya. so hindi mo na mababawi ginastos mo sa conversion.

    ang alam ko kaya carb type ang tawag kasi yung intake ng PH15 is card type or butterfly. pero EFI na rin yung PH15 like the LXi and ESi.

    basta may injectors sa may fuel rail... efi na yun. sa auto code, basta may "i" yung dulo ibig sabihin "injected".

    pero kung may carb talaga na PH15, pwede naman swap that to efi.

    PH15 came in carb and EFi

    1992-1995 civic LX - PH15 carb
    1996-2001 civic LXi - ph15 / PH15A EFi
    1997-1999 City EXi - PH15 EFi

    pwede iconvert ang carb to EFi, but the cost will be much higher than buying a surplus D15b or PH15 non vtec EFi engine.
    You need to replace the following:
    INtake manifold assy
    throttle body
    distributor
    various sensors in the engine block
    Then you need to provide the following also:
    Engine harness
    ECU - to be rechipped and reprogrammed if you want it to run efficiently

    pwede din stock set up but you have to replace the entire cylinder head assy from a PH15A including the harness, intake assy, distributor and ECU.

    sorry for the text type message.... new in here. ano naman po ba ang advantage if magpapalit g cylinder head ang engine. for example, ang ph15 na base engine ay pinalitan ng v-tech na cylinder head? would the v-tech work? thanks

    ^^ your car would have more punch in higher power band. yes it would work but you need to change the ecu also... p08 programmable would do.

    the head would have different cams... get the 20 cams v-tec head to feel the difference. pero kung low rev driving, baka hindi mo mafeel.
