Default 1991 Honda Civic SI, future engine swap

What would be the best bang for my buck? I am thinking B16A.

Looking for increased hp and torque. Not building a dragster but a fun daily driver

B16's are torque less, literally no fun from a stop imo, b18c or h22 is defientely worth the upgrade

Best bang for buck though, turbo whatever motor youve got

Torque a daily driver? I meant b16's are gutless, the power difference compared to a b18c1 is WELLL worth the few hundred dollars
