Default What to do with a 97 Civic LX

I am currently driving a 97 Civic LX 4 door. I have already put a Vibrant cold air intake on it. I dont want to get a new engine, I want to make due with what I have for right now. I was thinking about putting Si heads on it and I cant really decided right now if i want a turbo or a supercharger on it. I have good things about both for a civic. All ideas are welcome. BTW, it is going to be a sleeper.

Well it was orginally going to be a show car which it still may be. But i want the performance to back up the look. Is there anything I can do to help the performance with what I have?

turbo is best and cheapest. whats "si heads"? either way, they won't fit, si has a totally different engine.

My friend drives an Si, 98 or 99 I think, i cant remember what he told me. He looked at my engine and told me that it should work, or my friend could be a complete idiot. Would boreing out my engine help at all?
