With an '02 with probably low miles, I would go with a turbo over putting in an older H22 with unknown miles. Plus you will get way more torque from a turbo then from an H22. Research the topic well before making a move. Swaps are a fad, but may not be the best way to achieve the best results.

I second that. if you want the accord to be really fast you are going to have to spend a lot of cash to do that. cash you could spend on something else that is way faster. I plan on using my accord as my daily driver, and getting a fun fast weekend car.
