Your question is quite broad. You kind of need a more specific goal and budget to get a specific answer.

The price of an arm and a leg will differ from person to person....

That being said NOS or boost are usually the norm for best bang per dollar spent.

Yes, because $1700 + shipping + parts (maintenance for warranty) + install screams cheap.......

Not saying it isn't a good idea, but the OP is living in delusional land if he thinks he's making any type of sustained noticeable power for cheap.

I just got the exact same swap done and it cost me about $3500. Package + down pipe + motor mounts + shipping = $2150. The rest was for the shop to put it in because i dont have the tools. If you do go to a shop, make sure you do your homework before you let anyone touch your car.

If you purchased it from hmotors, you may want to review their policy on parts you are required to replace to retain the warranty. Injectors, seals, sparkplugs, etc all had to be replaced when I swapped mine.

Lol I used to want to boost my accord, but then I realized why bother when I could buy a car that was actually built for boost!

CAI/Exhaust is usually the place to start...

I talk to steve (HMotors) directly and he made it quite clear he only provides 30 day warrantees for any "high performance" motor he sells. Its been past 30 days so even if something were to go wrong im in the red as it is. But i had all that done anyways. The shop i had it done at is called Hondoctors and they are friends with steve. They replaced valve seals as well as rear main, water pump, timed the engine, replaced the timing belt and replaced plugs and plug wires. This shop is phenominal at what they do.
