Depends...how fast do you wanna go

I have the D15 in my S, and let me tell you, after owning a GSR, it leaves ALOT to be desired. I plan on swapping in a B20 in mine. I'm sure i could turbo my d15 for less than the cost of a b20, but my D15 has 177k miles. Personally i'd just prefer to have the power/torque that the b20 has completely stock. This is my daily driver, so I really don't want to deal with a lot of tuning if I can avoid it. Its my personal preference but i'd prefer a swap over a turbo d15.

how much would a swap of that kind cost if i do every thing my self?

http://www.hmotorsonline.com they will sell you the full swap. install is usually about a day cost depends on what kind of motor you want

oh **** u r lookin to do b20? if u are i dont know then but youll need a new tranny and other stuff cuz i think they will only sell the longblock. i woud go with the h22 or the gsr

JMod

Well he's going to need a new tranny if he swaps in any b-series or H motor. B20 is fairly inexpensive, its a non-vtec 2.0L engine. I think you'd be happy with either a GSR or B20, b20 is significantly cheaper though.

s2kds

does any one else know of any other good sites to order or read up on the b-series motors?

whoDAT

B20 has a good amount of torque and is very fun to drive around city streets. but if you get a gsr, as i have in my sol...vtec is like WHOA!
