there are only 2 logical choices:
1. turbo the D, cheap and lots of fun, i have a turbo d16 and love it!
2. J series swap, if money isn't an issue, and you're already looking at going through the hassle of a K swap

J's are cool, saw one on a dyno this weekend... But you either have 0 ground clearence, or you have the top of the motor sicking out of your hood.

The "best" plan would be a k24/k20 with a turbo. Easily put down 350whp

I wouldnt recommend a a j swap for any dd, as you either cut a hole in the hood and advertise it to theifts or risk hitting something and cracking the oil pan

I dont know but I think 4 cylinders seems more correct in my eye on a civic. Definitely k series.

If money isn't an option, sell the sol and buy an s2k. Instant 200whp.

Call the shop yourself and ask for a copy of the dyno chart.

it's close at 192WHP

del sol with b16a
http://lhtperformance.net/documents/...ol_-_b16a.html

they post allot in "another forum" you can ask them there also about their builds

If you find the need to challenge them on this build's number don't hesitate to ask them on the forum.
