engine swap advice h22a, please help!

guys need some advice...

ive seen 2 cars i like and want, 1) 1.6 civic coupe 1997 2) 1.5 vtec hatch changed to luk like ek9...

both luk awesome but arent gonna pack much of a punch... ive seen old prelude 2.2 vtecs selling for less then 1k... is it possible to take the engine out of the prelude and drop it in either of the above 2 cars? as i believe its an engine which produces nearly 200hp...

is this logical and will it produce 'the punch' i want?

any advice??

Yes you can do it, it will fit but you'll need new axels and such its been done before, try searching on hondatech for more detailed info.
