Any f series or h series. Most f series are in accords, h series are the preludes. This would most likely be your best option being that we have heavy cars. Mine more so. But the h22 has enough torque to gt or cars rollin nicely. THere are two main types of h series engines h22 vtec and h23 non-vtec. Some say that h23 are better for FI but I personally am going with a nice JDM h22. Not much of a difference between the two and if you have an f series in your car now you can bolt an h right up to your f tranny. I am going with the full swap as in engine, tranny, lsd, axles and such. You can get a full H22 swap off of Osakamotorsonline.com for about 2000 plus a smmall amount for shipping, or you can do a search and find prices for yourself.

H22 is the most common swap. If you're going boost though, your f22a6 should provide more than enough power if you build it up! I think swaps are overrated personally. If you want that engine, get the car to go along with it. Preludes are built to have that engine and go fast (for a Honda). Accords are more of a challenge without a swap...makes it more fun to me.

92-96 JDM h22a's are best since they are still OBD1, usually in the 1600-2200 range.
97-01 H22a's are a bit harder since OBD2 and a bit more expensive as well.

any 92-96 H23
any 90-01 F22a, F23 (98-01)

That's the Euro-R engine, right? I don't think that's worth the money. It produces the same hp as what he already has in there (even a little less I think). That's more just to say, "I have a Euro-R engine in my 4th gen."
