Engine swap help
So, I bought a CRX Si and I want to start saving up and looking into getting a motor swap.
I know people have done H22s and LS motors and what not.
I'm wondering what would be a good motor to put in it. I want to be able to throw a turbo on a fix it up and getting it running pretty quick. I want something that will be reliable, not be hard to get in and not be hard to maintain. I'm not looking for a 800hp rex. Just want it faster than it is now and a better motor all around.
Also, how much the engine would cost and how much it would cost to put it in.
I want to keep street legal of course and don't wanna cut out any parts of the car to make it fit.
Thanks!

Re: Engine swap help
They invented this thing called google for questions like this.
If every swinging dick asked what swap is best for my "Civic, CRX, 240sx, ect, ect" this forum would be way overloaded.
Before you or anyone else ask any more stupid questions, search the forum, if you can't find anything here.
SEARCH GOOGLE!

Re: Engine swap help
But dumbass questions that have been asked over, and over, and over agian because people, like you, can't do the research on their own ask for a hand out on a topic that can be easily found via google, and multiple honda forums. I'm not the idiot here, you are for asking a repetitive question without even attempting to do the research and leg work yourself. I can promise you any forum you register to ask a stupid repetitive question will get the same response you found here.
