It definitely makes the car more fun. However, the main difference you will notice is after 50 mph. 3rd gear pulls are night and day difference.

If you're looking for more power, I would just do the swap.

If you're looking for a bump in tq, too, turbo is a good way to go. I would stick with your H23 in that case.

H23-VTEC ... that is my recommendation. Keep your H23 block and throw an H22Vtec head on it. It's not that simple, but if you have time for some research, you'll find a lot of information about this combo.
