You can get a JDM Honda Integra Type-R (DC5) motor off ebay, with transmission (which is equipped with LSD) for 3500...and it has like 30,000 miles on it...8900RPM Redline, 9200RPM Rev-Limiter...and 220HP...that's a much better deal than the k20a2 that you are looking into getting.

Very sorry to hear that...I know a guy in Gettysburg (45 mins. from where I live) that does motor swaps for $500-$1500...never more than that. But yeah do whatever works best...I just remember running across that on E-bay and it seemed like a good deal. Good luck though.

Well...check out xs-power.com they have cheap turbo-kits but sometimes they have problems with the exhaust manifold cracking...so unless the kit provides a cast-iron exhuast manifold, i'd suggest getting one...but yeah with a kit from there you can do everything for 2K or less...depending on what all you go with...but be careful with that LS-VTEC because my friend had one and had to get a whole motor swap because it would never run right...but let met know what you do i'm interested to find out.
