Default Former 95 GSR owner: Want to do a Prelude VTEC swap into my 99 Civic DX Sedan

I'm a former 95 GSR owner, and would like to ask Q's about doing a Prelude VTEC swap into my silver 5-speed DX sedan.
1) Will putting a DOHC VTEC Prelude Motor make my sedan handle dangerously and unstably?
2) How much better is the H22A over the B18C1 motor?
3) If I turbo the Prelude motor, how much powere can it hold w/o building the bottom end?

It seems as though H22a motors are cheaper than B18C motors, thats why I'm thinking of swapping an H22a into my sedan...

advice comments?

turbo in a stock h22 motor is a waste of money
(h22s can t handle more than 250 on stock internals)
i found that out after i build my h23 vtec
(i was going to turbo it )
