Default 6th gen h23

i want to get the 6th gen coupe cause im guessing it will become a little cheaper after the 7th gen comes out. i am going to loook for a 4 cyl so it would be easier to do a swap. i have heard that the f series arent that good. so i wanted to go h series. you guys say that it is very expensive to safley boost a h22, so i am thinking of goign h23 turbo. i have also read that it is harder to do a swap in the 6th gen than the 5th gen. im pretty sure the h23 is cheap, but is it worth it? is that tranny good, or is there another tranny that i should get? i got other cars in mind if this plan is not a good idea.

f series motor has a lot of potential. a f22/f23 is better to boost to me than h22, but if you have money for a h23,swap and boost...god damn go on ahead!! f series motor in a 6th gen is just going to waste a perfectly good engine..unless the original owner used it for nationwide travel.

one little detail

federal law requires you to swap an engine of the same year or newer. there are no H23 motors 98 or newer since they stopped making them in 96 i believe.

I don't care what you do becasue it's a dumb law, but you should be aware of it, cause you may have probelms with a local inspection.

the law is the law, who follows the law? thats why the government had to make prison, for anyone who didn't follow the law and get caught. if i swap an h22/h23 on my 01 accord and knew the guys down at the smog station, everytime i had to go smog check i would just go to them, right? or is there more to it?
