has anyone tried putting an integra GS-R engine in their civic? i think that's be pretty wicked, and it's totally feasible. has anyone tried it? how'd it come out?

the B16A2 came out of the 99-00 Civic SI and is 1.6 liters. The USDM GSR motor is the B18C1 and the JDM is the B18C and is 1.8 liters.
