RE: Swapping Question
The only "Easy" swap for a 7th gen is the K-Series. Problem is that it's a $5-6K motor, and then you're still looking at $3K for other parts like the subframe, and lots of others. Unfortunately, just because it's D series, doesn't mean it will fit.
If you've got the cash, the K20 is amazing, but it definitely comes at a price. The K20A2 (RSX-S) will give you 200hp, the K20A will give you 220hp (JDM Integra Type R), and the K20A3 will give you 160hp (Base RSX/ EP3 si; This one only costs around $1500, but it's still $4500 or so for everthing all said and done. And that's assuming you do the work yourself)
Here's some more info:

RE: Swapping Question
I found a forum where you can also swap in a B series engine. can i only do the K since it is OBDII. And is it safe to assume that the K series motors put out more power than the B? Also either way im probably looking 6-8 kfor installation correct?
