go b16 all motor!!!! or go GSR...ls/crv-tech is good too, but, can be pricy. What motor do you have now or what exactly are you working with???

ls/vtecs can be nice if they have high end parts invested, like any other motor, plus the labor needed to throw one all together correctly can run high in costs.

For the money spent on a gsr swap, you could get a b16 and use the $1k leftover to give you more power than the gsr. But either one are good swaps.

LS turbo set up isn't a bad idea either, but again, they can be costly, it all depends on what you want for power, and how much you have to work with.

that means u got plenty of time to do some homework and look into the set up that you want.

search button works wonders meng....

read up on costs and set ups and what swaps do what etc etc. basically its like home schooling, but no annoying teachers, hehe

If you hunt and find stuff you will be ok. If you get a whole b16swap, 1150. And then you find a b17crank and rods. And some ctr cams and pistons. You are golden! Tune too.
