most common is B-series because they are easy to deal with and pretty easy to get ahold of, H22's or F-series a little harder cause of the size and crap like that (i had one <3'd it) or there is <3<3 K-series <3<3 very expensive if you dont source your parts correctly best swap in my opinion. As far as cost... B-F-H-K.

Well, it really depends on your needs/wants/budget. I would probably go with a B18C1 (GSR). For the money, relative ease, and power I think it's the best. It'll swap in pretty directly, you can keep A/C (really important if it were me), the cost isn't outrageous and it's quick and reliable.

if you only want to spent 2k get a gsr not a b16. if you have about 6k to spend then get a k20 swap if you only have 1k get a b18b1 and boost it later on

your hondas get stolen 95% of the time when your sleeping in your bed? do you know why? because people know where the car sits. buy an alarm for it, buy a poster that states you have an automatic rifle and a license to use it. put a security camera facing your car. buy a dog and take out the ecu when you tuck her on the driveway before sleeping. i bet all that will reduce stolen cars in cali. and block your car with another car also. thats what most people in my area do.

every night i put it in my garage, put the alarm on for safety and put on my clutch pedal lock as well and i have my dog sleep in the garage too so its pretty safe in there lol and yeah youre right mostly all hondas do get stolen at night...

you are a very smart man. i always let my dog loose in the yard and i get mad at my mother because she likes to lock the dog in the porch area...and 1 thing i forgot to mention. sometimes your friends are the ones that robbed it or set it up. in my area maybe 5 hondas a month get stolen. 10 would be pushing it and that would be with violent armed robbery lol
