You're the one suggesting an engine swap when the original poster said he doesn't have much of a budget. So great suggestion!

I just want to be able to smoke the guy in the WRX who messes with me on our daily commute to work, and another guy I know with a tricked out 97 accord, I'd like to leave him in my rear view,as well as seriously increase horses with out messing with too much of an mpg loss.
O2Sia2, I like your engine swap idea. If I can buy a better engine for 3500, will I be money ahead going that route vs intake,header,exhaust, etc? As far as hp for my $$$.
Also, I saw a guy on Craigslist selling an older tricked out civic, and he said he had a "rebuilt" title because he did an engine swap. Do you know if that's true? If I swap motors, will I have a rebuilt title car?
Thanks again everyone! All input is GREATLY appreciated!! Please keep any other ideas/thoughts/advice coming.

I would like to ultimately turn it into a "wolf in sheeps clothing",lower it a tad, skunk2 coil overs, body kit, carbon hood,black tsw track stars w/ Toyo proxys, tint windows, but keep appearance relatively stock other than that. Though whats kpro, SickSi99? Thank you guys !!
After reading your replies, thinking I'll go the turbo route, with exhaust, header, intake, performance chip?
to me that sounds like he likes the idea but wants to hold off for a bit maybe to save up some money so i'm still going to offer him advice on it


it's a 97 cobra was on 555r but now i'm on mt et streets untill the 7th when someone is coming from mississippi to take it off my hands
