if its a si you could keep the d16a6 and turbo it , that would be quick and affordable, or you could go the more expensive route and swap it a b16 , turbo that.. but expect to pay an arm and a leg ..good luck with the rex though

b16 turbo with low boost, or b18c1 turbo
b16 turbo will cost about 4k not including labor.
A gsr. add another thousand

LS or gsr, are your best choices! a turbo h22 is great, if you can afford to do it!
