Well first, I'd say search.
Second, I'd say which b18?
Third, the work involved and you're funds will dictate this decision more than personal opinion (for most).
Fourth, I'd ask what your goals are?
Then lastly, I'd say search again.

Id go with the B18 tho. H22 is better use for straight line in a civic. Its gonna weigh more obviously and most likely youre gonna understeer a lot.

Well now that it's been reiterated...

I'd say go with the H22... You build it and turbo it, 300 whp wouldn't be out of the question... It's a lot of work to get 300whp in a honda though.

PSI goals are good for know nothing boy racers who want to impress their stunna friends with "I'm running 10 pounds of boost y0." Set a HP goal.
