If he does that why not just go get a new Si engine?? Or just go get the K20A2 (RSX Type-S) Turbo that and have a good 250-300hp on your hands.... the bad thing is that you will need custom motor mounts from somewhere like hasport...Sure you wont have much room left in there for much more...But what more do you need????

its in the December/January issue of Honda Tuning
Probably the main problem would be finding the donor.....you could probably find one if you could find B18C anything....Maybe you have alot of cars with those around you im talking about where i live.. But this swap would make your car a beast

I hate to do this mike, but im gonn shoot down your theroy. The k20 would cost an arm and a leg to buy. The mounts that you would need to get that engine to fit are like another grand. And its a big engine.
Now he could get a b16 for right about a grand. He could build his own turbo for about 1500, and still be under the cost of the k20 swap, and that setup i just listed would run laps around a stock k20.
I was in the same shoes you are now, i want power and sooner or later do FI. Right now price is an issue for me, and i am seriously considering a b16 with a chiped ecu. The motor can be had for about 1100. And turbos can be built kinda cheap.
If you want real power get an h22. That engine has power and torque everywhere. With a basic turbo application and some upgrades you could easily get 300+hp to the wheels. and the eninge is sorta cheap...
