even in canadian money, what are u smokin to think anything would cost $15000, anyways, ill be nice and not tell you to search, an h22 swap would be a good idea and for the costs:

engine, tranny, ecu = $1950
downpipe = $50
clutch/flywheel(not needed but good idea to change while everything is out of the car) = $4-600
you use your accord mounts but the tranny has to be re-tapped
modifying accord harness w/ prelude harness = $125
you use same axles/int shaft
it would be a good idea to change timing belt, water pump, etc... = $not sure
and labor to install everything would be around $600-1000

also there are misc things that you have to do like tranny fluid, oil, oil filter, spark plugs, etc....also, if ur car is an auto then you will definately want to do a manual conversion which will be another $1000 approx
