Default What kind of performance are yall' getting out of H22 swaps and Turbo setups?

Well as the topic states: What kind of 1/4 mile times and 0-60 times (estimated or actual) are yall getting after performing these major engine modifications or swaps? I am honestly trying to decide if I want to plunk the money down to do one of these things to my 6th Gen Coupe 5spd. I love the look of the car, but I realize that it weighs as much as a sherman tank. And with that weight problem what will I net performance wise after spending 2k on engine swap or basic non-built motor turbo. If i didn't sink the 2 grand into the Accord, I could by a old CRX or civic hatch or del sol and have it as a project car, and the accord as my daily driver. Well What do yall think?

Thanks in advance for facts and opinions,

Chris

Your second idea sounds much better and definately more logical.

Having a second car as a daily driver and your other car as a project car is a great idea. You won't have to hitch a ride and you can take your time and do things right on the project car.
