Like i said in the beginning keep your D16y8, have it rebuilt to handle boost $2500 or so. Put it in yourself, buy all the turbo ish $3000-$4000. Put that in yourself. Tune it 200-300$. Stomp on most cars on the street.
One of the main reasons Honda's are not such good platforms to start off with is because everyone thinks they need to swap out their engine, which costs 3000-5000$ just for a beat down engine from someone elses car.
