Default H22 vs K20 for an EK Hatch? Help out a girl in need!

K so I wanna build a EK hatch (after I finish my 61 Falcon in like 3 months). I just cant decide if I should go with a K20 or an H22. Witch will give me more power? Witch has easier mods? Witch is lighter? Witch is an easier swap? Witch is stronger? If I blow another motor ill be pissed. Or should I just say **** it, get rid of the shell and buy an S2k? At least they are RWD. Maybe ITR is the way to go? But they are WAY too heavy. I am so scatter brained about all of this. Really anything will help me out. So far I have decided on window tint, a system, and narrowed it down to 2 different suspensions. I really need help! And does anyone know where I can get some sued seats?

P.S. I want everyone to think its a guys car. After I beat their *** they can find out its a chick.

Both are a colossal PITA to put in. It'd be more worth your money to swap a B-series and build it up (turbo, nitrous, etc) IMO.

K series will give you the most power, but theyre the hardest and most expensive to swap. Below that is the H, less power but easier to swap. Next would be the B, less power stillbut far easier to swap. Im with Bonestock98, swap a built and boosted B FTW. Its been done soo many times its not even funny, so theres tons of info on the setup. You can get killer power for a moderate price (compared to the K).

k20 all the way man

there stronger, lighter, and more reliable than both the h and B series engines

ive even heard its lighter than a b16b

and most japanese tuners are focusingf on making more parts for the k series engines and forgetting about the B series.h22 shouldnt even be in your head at all as there ****e

All of you need some grammar/spelling lessons. I'm so "scatter brained" after reading all of this. Thanks for lowering my IQ.

Maybe you should narrow it down to options other than everything before asking this kind of question?

Maybe you shoulda read the first post. This is a female asking for help (not man, woman). Im still all about the B series, cheaper anda lot of potential depending on wut you want to spend.
