Default where to start on increasing my horses

I just got a 96 honda civic ex, and I wanted to start building my racing machine. I have to admit I have some sibling rivalry my brother has a acura tl s type and hes a big bragger stating nothing can mess with him well, Id like to hand him his ***. Now what should I start with first?

An Civic Vs. an Acura TL....

You might as well not even start if you're trying to beat his car...
You might do it with a Accord with V6...but an Civic?...It's built for the economy..never speed. But if you wanna try...You're gonna have to go BIG with an engine swap..From there you'll have to add an TURBO...None of this is cheap($1800-$3500). You're probably better off just buying a powerful car from the early-mid 90's, it'll save you alotta backache too.
