I have a 2001 Civic EX 5 speed 4dr. What kind of engine would I want to get the most speed? I hear all this crap about the B series and the K series is the best and then theres an H and blah blah blah. Could you gear heads help me and point me in the right direction

now im wondering which to go with if i do the swap instead of a turbo. The rsx type s or the jspec type r. On jspec motors they have a type r rsx motor for 5600 plus shipping( included are complete motor, block, intake manifold, complete head, sensors, exhaust manifold, fuel rail, injectors, distrubotor, throttle body, alternator, starter, ignition wires, a/c compressor, power steering pump, headers, obd2 ecu, tranny, driveshafts, intermediate shafts, stock engine mounts, and wiring harness). My question is will the usdm type s subframe work with this motor and besides a kpro were there any more parts i would have to buy for the jspec motor to work. Or am I better off getting a usdm type s motor and getting all those parts u guys listed? Maybe Im just better off money wise building the d17a2 and running a turbo? Im just trying to weigh my options and make an informed decision that Im not gonna regret later. Thanx any help is appreciated.
by a type-s motor and find a k24 block, mate the head to the block and there you have it, the best swap set-up for you vic. Just my opinion though, im kinda bias. i only say the type-s motor because it is cheaper, and the tranny is better for the torque of the k24. i just need a quaife lsd but i still beat anyone i have raced, including an rsx with a k20a ITR motor with crower stage 2 cams and valve train and my buddies wrx with up-pipe, down-pipe intake exhaust and ecutek tune. these were both from a stop as welland no lsd for me (first gear is worthless). torque owns, lol. good luck, boost is nice, just more options and potential with a k-series.
hey i live in CA and i dont know which K series engine besides the K20a is legal to do. does anyone know?
I don't know if the k20a can be legalized ... theoretically it can be, but nobody has done it yet ... so that is open for debate. Same goes with the k20a2 ... nobody has legalized it yet ... though it is a much easier motor to legalize than its jdm version.
I'm 99% sure the k20a2 and k20a3's can be legalized pretty easily in california.
Quick questionnaire, not hate or flame, just answer plz, I don’t have time to research right now on this as I am doing college shit, 60 page research essay, etc.
1.Can a LSD from either the rsx-s or the 06 Si be put into an 04 vic?
2.The k20z3, new 06Si engine, it is same as type-s, etc. So it works with the mounts for the k20a2?
