Default Del-Sol Swap

i found this nice 1993 Honda Del Sol SI Coupe on autotrader for $3,800 but it only has 125Hp so my question is what would be the best engine to put into the car without having to get rid of things such as A/C and power steering and thanx in advance for your help

any B-series such as a GSR, LS, Type R, will do quite nicely in a del sol.

not if you want to boost it the right way-
hondata/aem ems/uberdata
turbo
manifold
egt guage
boost guage
ic
turbo timer
boost controller
downpipe
piping
possibly injectors
fpr
maybe clutch
depending on how much boost, definetly brakes
etc
Going fast and cheap dont work together.
