If you are thinking you might want to Boost your engine later after the swap, Don't get a B18C5 (type R) cause it isn't a good engine for boost, The compression is high. It's a great N/A motor though.

i have the b16a2 and i turbo'd it, on about 8-9 psi im putting down 250 to the wheels. the swap was alright, i didnt do it but my buddies did because i was still in school at the time and i was studying for finals. i would maybe just save up and turbo the D for right now for your first turbo and then when you want more power swap a built engine in.

Might as well go with a H22 because you get the same hp with around 20 more ft lbs of tq for the same price.

Jesus christ... what is this, contradict Forty day?!

F20B is cheaper, and done less often. It's not everyday you get a chance to do something alittle different from the norm in a civic.
