k24 bottom with a k20a2 head, boosted... that would be a ball. never seen it done though. not even sure its practicle.

honestly though, and i know i'll get flammed for this. an h22 is a good swap.

hp per dollar wise, you'll make out the best. i hear a lot about the weight being a big issuse, but ive been in an h22 swapped teg and it was quick. quicker then my gsr

Your selection is all over the place and by popularity, it's going to be k20 no question asked.

Get a GSR swap. I know a H22 swap makes more power and so on and so forth but there are countless possibilities with a B series swap. Thats the way to go in my opinion.

If you dont want to spend thousands a k series is out of the question. B20vtec for a easy swap with power.

I would consider getting an h22b, basically an h22 with a b series tranny (more aggressive gearing, ie b18c5 trany or b16 tranny). To use a b series tranny on the h series you have to buy an adapter, this link discusses them pretty well and shows of a few people that have this swap. https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=1608943

LSvtec if you want to conserve some money and have a powerful all motor setup

the K20 motor is about 5k and i see the total costs for a swap ending up around 8-9k bcause the customs axles, mounts, header, K-pro, wire harness, etc...

B16 shouldn't even be a choice if you already have a B18. K20 if you can afford it, otherwise build a ls/vtec or turbo the LS.

im pretty sure that like 99% of the people who even consider a k20 as an option and say they are gona do it .... dont do it....

its stupid. too mnay people are fooling themselves....

get the b16 its gona go straight in and make your car much faster and its very affordable... if you have more cash then get the h22 and it will be very fast... but im gona be straight with you and tell you that even if the k20 wins the poll i doubt your gona do it.

just go with the b16 and be happy with it... dont put yourself in debt over your car.
