That's completely up to you, there's 1001 roads you can take, the most common:
mini-me swap w/ Z6 head >optional D-series turbo build
LS/VTEC
B16 (99/00 Si)
LS
GSR
ITR
K20 (RSX)
H22 (prelude)
B20 (CRV)
B20/VTEC (B20 + B16 or B18 head)

Those are the most common - it's up to you to take a pick though, go HERE to check out the specs on some of those engines, most of them are listed there. It all really depends on your horsepower goals and your budget. You can also check out H-Motors for pricing on them & the basic pricing of the swaps.

The best engine would be a jet engine in my opinion.

HE MEANS PUTING A Z6 HEAD ON YOUR BLOCK. SIMPLE AND HELLA OF CHEAP. YOULL HAVE VTEC AND A GOOD BASE FOR TURBO.

BUT REALLY YOU SHOULD SEARCH THIS QUESTION HAS BEEN ASKED 1000000 TIMES
