Unless you're going to grab a VTEC solenoid and shove it in the side, it'll be hard to make use of the VTEC valvetrain
.
The head swap would be easiest (the "mini-me"), although easy, in this case, is relative, as many noobies try the mini-me and end up messing things up. However, our very own moderator "BauleyCivic" has a fantastic write-up on how to do it successfully. I suggest you look into that before making any final decisions as to where your money will be spent
