I know engine swaps have been gone over 4million times but I have some questions I can’t find the answers to. New to upgrading civics ,not new to cars. Thanks in advance for advice and info as I truly am unfamiliar on this. So I have a 98 civic cx hatch 1.6l auto trans. What I want to achieve is a faster vehicle that’s also a daily. Keeping the auto trans is actually preferable. This car is soooo slow. What I can’t find is the best most direct swap but also retain air conditioning power steering ect. I’m not looking for a race/track car I just want it faster than it is currently and keep all accessories. If you made this far thanks for reading and I look forward to hearing from you!

Unless you move away from the Auto trans, you only have the option of swapping to an LS Integra engine. Unless you need a new engine, it's not worth the cost and time IMO.
