Depends how much money you are willing to spend. B18C would be what i would go with, not too expensive also has better TQ than a B16. Just my opinion.

If you're looking to spend that much money I would look into getting some sort of built motor. You'll get more power, more reliability, and yeah...those are good things.

So, your first step should be to click that little button at the top of this page that says "search" on it and check out past threads about this. Your second step should be to check out www.importbuilders.com and see what they can throw together for ya. I'd take a look at their Package 4 which is just a motor, costs $5900 shipped. Completely rebuilt LS/VTEC with Type-R pistons, new bearings, new seals, new oil pump, new water pump, new timing belt, new head gasket, new valvetrain, new type-R cams, new clutch, Type-R intake manifold and chipped ECU.

Should put down at least 170 whp and bolts right up to the transmission you've already got.

2 grand for to "get that shiit boosting" is a gross underestimate.

Geeze with 10 grand, I wouldn't be putting a motor in the teg. I'd keep it as a daily driver, then find myself a rolling shell CX or VX hatchback. Can you say built all motor h22 on the bottle?
