Default SWAP del sol 8k budget

I have a 93 Del Sol S 150kmi

It looks like expletive$#!t but runs pretty well and the inside is clean, comfortable, everthing is functional and at your fingertips.

All in all a pretty good DD.

I want to make it quick... It currently has the d15b7... It is too weak for me
I've driven the b16's and they are too slow also
I drove a z3 and that was still too slow

I'd like to feel like 240 to the wheels
Hopefully that will be suffencint with the car weighing in at 2100lbs with me and fuel

eg K series 7-8k$ or so i hear:: and they easily become targets of theft

eg H series 6k$ make the front too heavy under hard braking?

eg B18c GSR 4k$ these are all the swaps I have looked into
^all with LSD

If I want to keep the car NA and drive it really hard what engine will allow for dependability, powerfull acceleration that will lay me back in the seat, good handling on winding hilly roads< talking about weight diistribution F/B; and the ability to upgrade to make a more powerfull NA

Brake upgrade suggestions; im keeping the 4 lugs for a good reason

Should I even do this?

I apologize in advance for the poorly written post?, hopefully most people get the idea.
I also posted in this forum since motor people will have a better trechnical understanding of the engines and what kind of numbers they put up

Please I want input as to what engine might be best for me

You know the H22 is only around 50 lbs heavier than a B18C, right?
