Lol - you're going to do an 4WD J series swap into an Accord and then boost it?

I'd recommend with just doing a J-series swap if that's what floats your boat. However if you have the C27 motor already in your Accord (which isn't a Type R) the mounts and everything else won't work out of the box as they're designed for the 4cyl variant.

There's only a handful of people with J32 swaps in their CD chassis Accord. I'm not aware of anyone that has completed or even attempted an 4WD swap.
